Leesylvania / Occoguan Bay Paddle

On Saturday the wife and I went for a nice short paddle from Leesylvania State Park to Great Marsh which is part of the Mason Neck National Wildlife Refuge. It was a pleasant day with a temperature of around 50 degrees Fahrenheit  and a water temperature of around 46. The paddle started out with scattered fog but as we were heading back  the visibility dropped to a mile or less. We checked our bearing before we lost sight of land. It made for a nice paddle and there was no boat traffic.

And here are a few photos of or paddle last Saturday.

Our track for the paddle on a beautiful foggy and rainy Saturday.

Guess the eagle got camera shy.

On our way back to the put in the fog was thick. Visibility was only about a mile.
