family time boating, beach and kayaking

I enjoy spending time with my family. My 5 year old granddaughter has given me new life for adventure. We live in Florida very close the the Springs and the views while kayaking are absolutely beautiful. Whether it be taking a ride to the sand bar, or relaxing on the beach, nothing more relaxing to me.
