It was a great day for mudding! It was sunny and well over 50 degrees. I’m not sure why, but I had the creek all to myself. I would have expected everyone to be out on the water on such a gorgeous day. I took my trusty video camera and shot some video. The stills you see here are from the video. As you can see, it was a very pretty day.

I went back to the new spot I’ve been exploring.The majority of the video is in the location pictured in this second video still image. The mud was thick, with great texture. I only wish it had been a little warmer!
In any case, it was an agonizingly slow sink. I never did find a bottom, but I could only sink up to my armpits, given the temperature and thickness of the mud. I stayed in the mud until I was shivering. Had I been closer to going under, I might have kept going, but I still had at least 10 inches to go down and my legs were locked in too tight to just bend my knees. It was really some great mud, and I had a great time. I’m not sure when I’ll get another chance to venture out, but spring is right around the corner, so I’m optimistic. I’ll have a new video for sale soon. I’ll probably put some out-takes on the web-site, for everyone to enjoy.
