  • Bonny - I see that you live near the damn on Lanier. I probably paddle past your place on my morning paddle around the islands. I live at the end of Lakeview Drive, one point east of the water intake near Lanier Harbor gas docks. Next time you paddle that way, wave our way. We are the dock with two blue jetski pads (and yaks sprinkled around the dock and shoreline)

  • Hey Bonnie, Please call me about the cleanup on Sat. Some folks in GCA are wanting to join the trip and I didn't have a contact number for you. Thanks, Karen.

  • Hey Bonnie,
    Are you limiting the Sogue trip to 5 paddlers? Also can you use kayakers for fetchers in those tight spots?

  • Hi Bonny, I got your email that Soque Creek is an intermediate level trip, so we can't go on this one. Hope to do a beginner one with you sometime. I think it's wonderful that you are cleaning up the rivers for all of us to enjoy - thank you!

  • Hope to see you soon, too. Spent all day today, on the river with some new lady friends. Martha, Dian, Jane and I paddled Settle's Bridge to Abbott's Bridge. It was Jane's first time in a kayak. Great fun! Saw lots of trash and thought of you. Did pick up a few golf balls. :)
