Journal Entry # 13

Look at my shoe!

Finally something I am good at! Yesterday I got the chance to kayak. We kayaked on the Pearl River which is near the Gulf of Mexico. In fact you could smell the salt in the air as we creeped closer to the gulf. We went kayaking because there are some of the areas of the wildlife management that we cannot reach on foot but only by boat. These areas are just as important to hunt for caterpillars so alas we kayaked. No alligators but some really yucky mud. The mud was so crazy that if felt like quicksand. Check out the picture.
The biggest hazard today was the fire ants and I fell victim to the fire ants and have about fifteen bites on my feet.
