Missouri boat ride and a cave tour
« on: June 29, 2019, 07:28:08 PM »
Had a 300 mile day with my buddy Scott





Aker's Ferry is off the beaten path $4.00 ride across the creek









 Devil's Well is nice and cool on a hot day. We saw a total of THREE HUGE grass clipping deposits, but we managed to navigate through without terra firma contact  :laugh:

Looks like fun!!

Isn't a MO Boat Ride one w/no ropes that ends up downstream?

That's how it is supposed to be....Guzzi's don't swim as well as horses though I imagine!

The dude in the house across the road will take you inside the buildings for a tour. Very friendly. There's a HUGE spring there. The gravel road to get there is a little gnarly but it's worth the trip. I took a dip in Bryant creek last time I was there. It's some chilly springwater! I have more photos if you'd like to see them. Where do you live???
