In the Palmetto State

I must be fairly far from home, because all the rivers are flowing to the Atlantic Ocean rather than the Mississippi River or the Gulf of Mexico.

I'm in the South Carolina low country, and I've made camp in Santee State Park on the western shore of Lake Marion, a vast reservoir created by a dam across the Santee River.  It's late afternoon, and I've just paddled for 40 minutes on the lake near the campground.  I did another set of 12-stroke sprints at two-minute intervals.

The base of operations for tomorrow's North Shore Cup race is across the lake in Summerton.  I will head over there shortly to check the place out and see what I can find out about the course.
