All,
I took today off from work and along with a man I work with we went kayaking from Hawkins Bridge to Evans Bridge. I had never traveled that river and never will again. The trip is only three hours which was slightly shorted than we really wanted. The river is nice but relatively boring compared to Oswego to Harrisville. If you want a straight run without any obstacles this is the river for you. There is an interesting wooden dam towards the end. But the real reason why I would not do it again is because you pass the campgrounds of Godfrees Bridge and Wading Pines.
We were passing Wading Pines and there were two men with a boy and girl swimming and swinging on a rope swing. As we passed the boy asked us if we liked the Eagles, and as usual I said no. I thought that was the end of it but I was wrong. He swam across the stream and started running along the edge of the river and passed us and climbed back into the river ahead of us. He was abut 10 years old and that kept him from being killed by us! He again asked us if we like the Eagles and we said nothing. So he started throwing water at my coworker getting him and his camera soaked. The boy was fortunate he was in the kayak. He then turned on me and asked me if I liked the Eagles, and I told him I would tell him after I passed. He threw a small amount of water on me and then grabbed the handle on the end of the kayak and held me back. I turned around and told him to let go, and he complied and headed back down the river. All the while the men said nothing to him. Maybe they were not his relatives.
Going by those campgrounds makes that river a bust.
