On a cool morning I launched my kayak from Pioneer Park and paddled downstream.    At the Confluence I stayed right and worked my way through a shallow section into the North Thompson River.    I paddled upstream slowly since the current is stronger in that river.   Wanting to paddle for about 1.5 hours, I picked a spit to turn back downstream to enjoy my face into the sun as I glided and paddled back to the Confluence, and then back up the South Thompson River. 

Another fine day of spring paddling with many more days to come…
