Kayaking - Watauga River

Went kayaking today with Pops and some people from church.  It was a perfect afternoon to float the Watauga river.  We put in right outside of Elizabethton and floated for about 3 hours down the river.  They weren't generating any water at the dam so the river was relatively calm.  Most of the water was flat but there were a couple small rapids to make it interesting.
The river was beautiful.  Most of the water we floated through was trout trophy waters so we saw a handful of fly fishermen.  We also passed by a bunch of rental fishing cabins and farms.  It was really relaxing floating through the East TN countryside.
