Ed Miller, Port St. Lucie:
I have great memories of working there as a counselor in 1965 before being drafted in the Army. I taught life saving and rowing. I would love to hear from Magness or Donoho if they are still in the area.

...a ball, I got out. I almost got capsized 3 or 4 times after that. every time I tried to paddle the weight would redistribute. hit some white water tossed a rope to my buddy and he pulled me up on the beach. Now by this point it went from enjoying the scenery and having a blast to are we going to be able to finish this creek? I quit taking pictures. I had my camera in the kayaks dry storage. I really wish I documented this trip better, but I did not want to get murdered when I got home for ruining the digital cam my girlfriend got me. So we decide to take a vow whatever we come to we are taking/ or we are going around fast. this 5 mile trip turned into 6 hours and we still had two more bends to go. we didn't have a map, but I was using my Verizon gps the whole way. We hit two systems, one pretty good, half was scary, and one mild and actually a relieve. Then we saw the most beautiful sight ever high tension power lines. Then a pontoon boat. I never thought an old moldy pontoon boat would look so glorious. We made it, but we still had to paddle back to the park. Now this is when it sor...

Deer Creek
There are many put in and take out spots along the creek. A nice paddle is Eden Mill park down to Rocks state park. Put in by parking at Eden Mill Nature Center off of Gwan Grove rd. Take out at the parking area under the king and queen seats off 24 in rocks (by old consesion stand. Do not paddle further unless you are an accomplished paddler due to the immediate section after the take out. It is a fall line creaed shoot that drops about 35 feet over 100 yards and narrows to 1/3 original wifth. Not difficult but intimidating and surprising if not ready and has a potential pin spot below biggest drop....
