It is a beautiful day for a paddling adventure. There are not a lot of outings listed on the AMC website for the Narragansett Chapter these days, many of them also paddle with The Rhode Island Canoe and Kayak Association (RICKA). Either way, this is a really great bunch or people to paddle with.
This outing is similar to one I did from Wickford to Rome Point back in June of 2018, however this excursion is a little shorter. Every time you go out it's different: the weather, the water, the people. It's all fun. Compared to that trip, we did a little more exploring off to the sides. Nonetheless, some of the pictures will actually look quite similar to the earlier ones.

| This residence is impressive every time we go by it. |
 |
| On this trip we're actually doing it a little backward from my previous trip. We round Poplar Point and then head toward the North Kingstown town beach. These people have nice waterfront property just around the Point. |
 |
| After a lunch break, we head to Fox Island, a private island in the Bay. |
 |
| Behind the house is a big weather vane, probably part of a weather station. |
 |
| The skies are clouding up a bit, but it doesn't seem to bother this extended family of ducks. |
 |
Before our take-out, we take a little extra time to explore Mill Cove, just to the north.
Lots of wildlife here including this pair of white egrets. |
Out total distance was 7:64 miles covered in 2:16. However, it may actually have been a little longer because my phone tracking took a little vacation after Fox Island due to snapping a photo. Our entire time out was 3:51 which means we enjoyed a very leisurely lunch.
