PanamaRob, Firewalker, and I met at a boat launch for Econfina Creek right off of Hwy 20 north of Panama City Beach to take a 6 mile kayak trip. This is a beautiful rural part of Florida that most visitors miss. The waters of the creek are fed by springs that are cool and turquoise blue and life in and beside the creek is abundant. It was a warm day but the paddling was not difficult as in most places the current of the creek would float us along. There were some obstacles now and then to paddle around like fallen trees. I loved looking for wildflowers on the shoreline but my favorite part of the trip was floating above the crystal clear waters of the springs.
