I always thought that pulling my drysuit on and off was the worst garment I'd ever have to deal with. I was wrong. Ladies, I should have been warned about shapewear like Spanx.

Getting prepped for the 2026 Lacombe & District Chamber of Commerce Business Awards Gala in only 4 days! Wish me, all the nominees, and everyone fighting leotards, pantyhose, and tummy sucker-inners spandex torture devices, some good luck. šŸ˜†

Blush. It hasnt been easy but without the incredible help from Fred Brotherton, Myra, Sean Saltwater, Danielle Doig, bookkeeping from Sharon Muise, and support galore from Tyler Schafer of Carriage Upholstery and his incredible family, County Waters Kayaking would not have become the dream come true that it is. Thank you so much for the support and believing in me. 🩷

Well everyone, it is officially the worst day of the year. Our last paddle of the season. We spent the weekend on Vermillion Lakes and Upper Kananaskis in the snow and freezing rain just trying to make the season last one more day.
I will catch up with everyone in a few days with a recap of this year's adventures, thank yous, and what's coming up for 2027, but for now, time to go get warm by a fire.

What can I say about last night's Glow Night except WOW! Once again I was blessed to be kayaking with an incredible group of people. The weather was perfect, water was like glass, and the sky was gorgeous. We went out onto the lake as the sun was lowering on the horizon to meet the perfect sunset. Quite a few beavers splashing around and a few muskrats too. As the lights started glowing, the "oohs" and 'ahs" started (I love hearing those) and the night became magical. It was everything awesome.

Im so glad I got to share the last public Glow Night of the season with such a fun group. My heart is full, my smile is large, but Im also a little sad it's coming to end for the year. There's only a few more days of kayaking left before I have to rack the fleet for the season. If youd like to book, now is the time. As the weather has cooled down considerably and dusk is coming sooner, I'll be keeping the tours strictly to Lacombe Lake, Middle Chain, and Magee.

Available Monday-Wednesday this coming week 5pm-7pm so you can get a sunset experience. Give me a call 780-605-3688

This Saturday is our last public Glow Night with no minimum booking numbers this season. If you have wanted to try the night paddle and haven't had the chance, now's the time to book. Launching 630pm on Lacombe Lake. We kayak the sunset then enjoy the vibrancy of a Glow.

Our Glow Nights include illuminated kayak for each person complete with underwater and deck lighting, glow sticks, pfd and paddle, safety equipment, waterproof phone case, waterproof bag for your extra jacket and gloves, even a waterproof lap pad to make sure your dry from little drips and dribbles. We pull you into and out of the water to keep your feet warm and dry too. We have thought of everything.

$75/person. Still room for 4 more to join the night. Phone 780-605-3688 for information and booking.

You dont see me much on social media because I dont like to be. Yesterday I was pushed WAY out of my comfort zone doing a quick interview for the Lacombe and District Chamber of Commerce. I felt horribly self conscious doing this. But here's the thing. I DID IT. Being nominated for a business award has more behind the scenes steps than i anticipated. Phew!

You may notice that Im not young, I'm not fit, and Im definitely not who most would picture being out there paddling nearly every single day, but here I am. I can paddle all day, look after my guests safety, and have the skills to make sure I can physically rescue you if ever an emergency were to happen (like should a whale breach on the lake and land on your kayak, I can get you back in it and to shore. Or you do something silly and leap out of your kayak lol)

Kayaking doesn't need you to be built like super model, young, or even have all your factory parts like hips and knees. Kayaking just needs you to be willing to try. Put yourself out of your comfort zone for just a minute and you may find that youll be proud of yourself too for doing something new.

Our tours are easy paddling, we have kayaks that are easy to get in and out of, and we always keep a relaxed pace for all activity levels.

Only a few more weeks of paddling before the ice comes. Today we are on Lacombe Lake at 5pm with room for more to join. Give me a call at 780-605-3688 for information and booking.

Happy Monday! Let's go kayak on Magee Lake to see the shoreline leaves changing colours. We have room for 4 more people to join at 5pm today.

We provide the kayak, all the gear with it, and guide you too. No experience necessary. Just calm water and peaceful paddling. As it's cooler, we will also be providing waterproof lap pads to keep your legs dry from drips and dribbles, as well as pulling you in and out of the water so you dont have to get your feet wet.

Now is the time to get your kayaking time in before the frosty nights turn into frosty days and frosty lakes.

Give us a call for information and booking.

What's up?

Last night was so good. The weather, the people, the lake, and the lights were all perfect. How awesome is that! Another awesome thing? We hit 1600 followers on Facebook. That's not a little number. 1600 people supporting this little business means so much. Thank you!

Let's get some more kayaking in. This week's schedule:

Monday is a big day for me as Im being video interviewed for being nominated for the Home Based Business of the Year from the Lacombe and District Chamber of Commerce. Then off to Magee lake for a 5pm paddle. $60

Tuesday Sept 29 I think we should get a lake paddle in. I'm thinking Lacombe but first booked is first choice. 5pm $60

Thursday Oct 1 let's do Middle Chain at 530pm. The official start of Autumn discounts. $50

Friday Oct 2 Lacombe at 5pm $50

Saturday Oct 3 Lacombe Lake GLOW NIGHT 630pm. $75

If youd like to join me, send a msg and Ill book you in.

Some people fill my bucket just a little bit extra. Tonight those people were filling my kayaks with smiles and laughter. I needed that. I really really needed that. Feeling pretty blessed. 🩷
Tomorrow we have another Glow Night. Taking the weekend off as the weather is supposed to be yucky. Hopefully some more paddling next week. Crossing fingers for some more warm Autumn kayaking.
