Kayaking the Willamette


About 6 months ago Bill and I scheduled a weekend to kayak together. Yesterday was the day we scheduled and we had a gazillion things to do, but we went kayaking anyway! It was beautiful and relaxing. We saw several Great Blue Herons and several Ospreys. We both slathered on the sunscreen!























We started at the bridge in Salem and kayaked down stream to Wheatland Ferry. It was 12 miles of paddling, but there was a pretty good current all the way. It took us about 3 1/2 hours.


This Osprey nest is right below the ferry. This is a baby waiting for its dinner.


Mom always comes through!
