My near death floating the Sante Fe River

This past Wednesday, July 2, we headed to Ginnie Springs in Florida. It is clear water springs that people will usually float on tubes from there down the Sante Fe River for an hour or two and walk back down a dirt road.

W e put in at the springs and, at the last minute, decided we didn’t really want to make the float down the Santa Fe River. So, we tried to get back into the clear water of the springs itself against the current and it was not working.

I don’t know if I slid off of my tube or fell off, but I do know that I was off my tube and my left foot was hung up in some roots and the water was about up to my nose.
