A little film that was selected by the Miami Independent Film Festival



https://vimeo.com/150047608

I was on a support boat (which you see aground at the 4:00 mark) helping with the trip. If you have 13 mins to spare to watch, we are proud it make the selection for the Miami film festival.

If anything, it shows the beauty of the Chattahoochee and Apalachicola river systems or just enjoy the artists creations.

Ours was sitting in a farmers field just 5 weeks before taking it 260 miles down a river. The guys are really talented artists too.

Until today, this had been my favorite art boat, a work by Carlos Rolón created for: Poem About an Inland Sea.

Very cool boat. It would be popular at some rafting up spots here in Florida.



Here is another pic of our little accidental grounding.

Paradise. Lots of opportunities for kayaks, too.

Here we are in Detroit, north of Canada.



You and your crew are welcome, anytime!

I think the water up there is too cold for this southern boy, so you'll just have to come down.

I really enjoyed the film - great views of the river. Sent the link off to some friends.

It was a fun 10 day trip with a lot more drama than was captured on film too.
