Kayak Trips 2015
The Skydog Report Wednesday October 7, 2015 Maureen and I went for a relaxing trip on the Thames starting at Springbank Park and ending at Killworth bridge. The water levers were very low so we bumped into a few rocks but all went well and we went through the rapids twice. Video Below. |

The Skydog Report July 25, 2015 Todd and Daniella took a trip to Kilworth with me and it was a wonderful day on the water. We saw the two Bald Eagle youngsters flying near the nest but we did not see the parents. The water level was a bit higher than low summer levels and we had to dodge a few rocky spots. The three of us had a nice ride on the Thames. |

The Skydog Report May 2015 we did two trips on the Thames and both Fridays were perfect. On May first we took Patrick O'Donnell a Hang Gliding buddy of mine and the water was a foot up so it was pretty fast. We had a sunny day and saw some deer and the Bald Eagle nest had action with two babies and two parents protecting them. We took my grandson Seth Shuster on May eighth and it was a fun ride again and Maureen took some great photos of Seth going through the rapids at Kilworth. On may 18th Maureen and I hiked back to the Eagles nest near Kains woods and I was able to get some good shots with Maureen's Canon sx 50. |
