Watch out for the chiggers hiding out in that Spanish Moss. Do they have those in Chicago?
Enjoy the paddling while you are here. Some of the best in the world. Just not a lot of rapids. I think the Suwannee has a run or two.
Or, you can let that snow pile up and head south to Florida for an escape. I know where there's free camping right on the water, huge oak trees full of spanish moss for shade
Do I see an AA winter rendezvous in our future?
But seriously, congrats on the move.
