    Nice one Quiet John. I have always been curious about these drive thru's. Still need to get out to Weiser. Looks like a perfect day you had. Appreciate your unique take on things, keep at it brother!

      Greetings. Thanks for tuning in. It is opened up for driving twice a year. We hike or bike it all other times. How's it going? I just thought of you today. I did a no talk, no music hike in Locust Lake Srate Park on the Oak Loop Trail like you do sometimes. When is your next video ?

    No christening of champagne 🍾 for this beauty? Glad to see that the loss of the mighty Sea Eagle hasn’t marooned you permanently and the Lifetime looks to be a sturdy vessel. I echo the comment from Hiking Outdoor Family to look into a gel cushion for the kayak as it’s a game changer. I would also invest in some drip rings for your paddle as they are cheap, easy to install, and will save you from soggy legs and pants as they prevent a lot of that water that was running from the paddles down the shaft from spilling into the boat. Auburn Silt Dam played a pivotal role in cleaning up the Schuylkill River from the heydays of coal and is a beautiful, calm place to kayak or as a launch or take out for Schuylkill River kayaking. This is a stop on the annual Schuylkill River sojourn and then picks up after a short portage around the dam at the back where you launch from the stilling basin. Will have to join you for a yak next year! Keep wondering and wandering!

  • @hikingoutdoorfamily

    That's great you got a new kayak. The sit on top design looks really nice. I bet once you feed that strap though the back the seat will be better. I know on Amazon they sell a lot of aftermarket seats or even gel cushions for kayaks that you could add on if you need more comfort.
