With minimal effort I could really cruise. A little water runs down the paddle that is out of the water into the boat or onto your hands sometimes. Not a big deal for me. Croixboy |

Curious but where is the water that you are stopping to get off Midway road? |

It's the public well for Eldes Corner Google Map View It's the northeast corner of the intersection of I35 and Midway Rd keeping in mind that I35 is going east-west at this point so it's confusing. So, coming from the south, exit at Midway, turn left on Midway Rd to go under the freeway and make your first right at the frontage road and its a few hundred feet up the road on the left. I just fill up my water bottles on the way up and back but I have also filled up 7 gallon water containers for group camping trips and there was a guy filling up two 55 gallon barrels for his house when I was there this last time. It's a tradition with our family to stop there. Often you meet somebody else doing the exact same thing when you are there and can have a nice conversation. And the water is SOOOOO good. Croixboy |
