I hope you liked your stay at Tallulah Gorge. It's in Georgia. You went right by Black Rock State Park. It's very nice. Lots of trails.

Not Tampa, but I guess that is a good Reference point for those who aren't from the area. It's between Tampa, St Petersburg, Bradenton and Sarasota, for those watching and wondering where to look on the map. Nice video!

Thanks for sharing! My family and I are beginner kayakers and have only done lakes in Central Florida where we live. We live about 30 minutes from this state park. We are planning our first river kayaking trip to start from Paynes Creek State Park to Crews Park in Wachula around September, after alligator mating, nesting, and hatching season. I really enjoyed your video! 🌟

Look at that awesome net barrier! More effective than cardboard barriers and with an estimated 20 year plus lifetime, it's less expensive too! Sets up in under 5 minutes. Get one for your club! You can arrange for them to crisscross to isolate courts for one, two or three tables, cutting down on play interruptions.

Good stuff. Entertaining with nice relaxing music. Nice editing. How's that Florida Man beer? Also I wanna see the inside of that camper. I want a sailboat. Edit: I saw a quick flash of the inside. Does it have a shower or toilet? Also, I went boating on Norris lake like 20 years ago. I seem to recall them having a Hooters restaurant in the lake that you could only reach by boat. Do they still have that?
