Well, after Sunday’s adventure of a 4′ water moccasin seemingly charging my 22′ kayak, I never knew just how fast I could paddle backwards!! Despite the distraction of him – another awesome weekend learning proper techniques and survival skills when being jousted out of the boat.

A great BIG thank you to my most talented instructors, Dave and Patti! At first I thought Taylor and I had found Southwest Paddlesports- and then I realized after several visits and hours of kayaking with them – they found me. James, Patti and Dave have given me unfettered help, guidance and a wonderful new respect for the art of kayaking. And being in the great outdoors again – my peace – is renewed again. I am incredibly humbled by them and honored to be learning from such warm hearted and talented people. Southwest Paddlesports in Spring, TX. GO see them!!
