I recently spent a long weekend at our vacation home in Bristol, Maine, where I got some fantastic photographs while kayaking. I rented one of the used boats for sale at Mid-coast Kayak with the intention of buying it if I liked it. I knew it was the perfect boat for me at a place like the Johns River.

As I said, I was luckly enough to get some fantactic close up photos of a seal in the Johns River.

Monday morning was perfect with sunshine, blue sky and the water like glass.

The seals were out sunning and playing and the lobster men were busy working their traps.

The lobster men had a crappy morning when they later got hung up on some rocks as the tide was going out. They had to wait another hour and a half for the tide to hit the low point and another two hours for it to get high enough to lift the boat.

It’s encouraging to know I will have a kayak that I really like when I go back at the end of July.
