I must admit . . . I was a little worried about taking my Mom on this river. We have been kayaking for a while now . . . only a couple of times on a river, and they were wide. This river is narrow with twists and turns . . . and lots of places to end up in the river. So, I did a dry run the week before just to see what I was getting us into. Afterwards, I still had some reservations.
Was I crazy taking my 88 year old mother kayaking on the river?
It is so beautiful though. This picture isn’t a great shot of the river. It is the Kickapoo River in WI. We started up at Ontario and just did a short two hours. There are so many rocks and cliffs. She loved it!
And, we didn’t end up in the river!
A ‘dry run’? I bet that was fun 😉
Knee-jerk response: “Well, Duh!”
Considered response: “Of course, that depends how healthy and agile she is. I wouldn’t dream of trying it with my 89-year-old mother, as she is frail and barely mobile :/”

My Mom was pretty frail and always needed help getting in and out of the kayak but she was always up for it!
