Beaver Dam 5-24-2011

          Gracie and I were able to get in the big red canoe and go for a nice paddle today. We were on Lake Keowee, a part of the lake that we had not paddled before. After leaving behind the houses and developed shore line the lake was just woodland with small clearings and creeks flowing into the lake. A real nice place to canoe and enjoy God's handiwork! We followed the shore line and stayed within twenty feet of land, because of this we discovered a real live beaver dam!-- How cool is that??-- About two feet high and three different sections with marsh land between each section.

          We didn't see any beavers,they are active from dusk to dawn, it was the middle of the day and hot!  . Going back to the dam will be a good trip for a moonlit night. We had a fun experience and needed too share it with all ya'll before it got stale.

          Water or woods,

           Turtle and Gracie
