Trip Report/Photos
Featured Photo

Five GO members kayaked seven miles around Wilton Manors.  The New River, in effect, circles the core of Wilton Manors, turning the always gay friendly city into an island.  The overcast weather helped cool things down a bit, but still, seven miles was a bit of a workout.  Afterwards the five of us congregated at Rosie's, for a well deserved lunch and beer.
