Wanna go? Lake Seminole, Fl to Apalachicola, FL 6/6/15

my brother and i are taking my pontoon from just below the dam of Lake Seminole and going to Apalachicola, FL, of course, via Apalachicola river.

launching about daylight, 6/6/15, if anyone's wanting to join up.. the ramp is at Chattahoochee River Landing; I spoke to the 'city' folk that run it... they say no charge to leave truck/trailer; people do it all the time... and police make rounds almost every hour there, round the clock

our plans include a leisurely 60 miles the first day, and staying at a hole in the wall place called Dead Lakes Sportsman's lodge... going to use that as a jumping off spot.....nothing fancy at all... roof over head with kitchen...

day 2 will be the remaining 40 or so miles, to apalachicola....

during our time there, and weather permitting, we'll hit apalachicola for some great food at Boss Oyster and/or Hole In The Wall restaurants, st george island, and perhaps even some in the gulf... <checking off the bucket list>...

the first weekend in June is 'license free saltwater days'......

"they" say there's some great bass fishing in the Dead Lakes area, so we'll spend a day or two doing that, too...

the tentative return upriver to Lake Seminole is 6/11
