Day 109

Monday
LRM 303
1992 miles completed
I paddled 33 miles today.
The heat wave is over. The high today was in the 80s. I had favorable win most of the day. The low tonight will be about 56. I’m glad I brought a sweatshirt I may need to put it on tonight.
It was an uneventful day. I did not meet anyone.
I camped on Shreve’s bar. Shreves bar is an island right where the red river joins the Mississippi and where the lock is for getting to the Atchafalaya river. I was not able to camp at the campsite on the north end. The water was so low the sand began a mile before the campsite. To access the campsite I would have had to get out in mud. I continued a mile farther along the island to the south end and found a nice sandy place to get out and pitch my tent.
Just you, the gators & the skeeters…lol!
