He went out & test it out on the water with his co worker. I was Suppose to go but 20 min after getting the kayak loaded up in the truck we had stopped by a BBQ store and when I got out of the truck my leg 🦵 give out on me & I failed down & my leg 🦵is hurt pretty bad. The X-rays show no Broken bones but I have to get an MIR done to see what is wrong. My lil brother feels bad because he thinks that he pushed me to much to help him pick up his kayak because I only had 3 hours of sleep. I keep trying to tell him it's not his fault. I think I am done kayaking , kayak camping , fishing , & working for the rest of the year. We will see am hoping that is not True. Take it easy buddy.

@@GatewoodBrown you guys have been doing this a while, and it shows. Especially if you’re like me. I tend to learn from mistakes rather than research. Lol. Thanks for the tips. I can’t wait to camp on the river.

@@GrumpyGillsFishing yes! It’s all a game of trial and error. I’m glad we have the Internet to help others learn from our mistakes. Makes us all better quicker!

More like hiking with kayaks. 😅

I want to spend more time in both places! AR and MO have so many wonderful paddling locations
