“River Angels,
by Rod Wellington, Tuesday, August 23, 2016.
Rod Wellington on the Jefferson River in 2013.
In 2013, Rod Wellington, owner of his own publishing company
(Crow Books), paddled his way past Kansas City as the first North
American to travel “Source to Sea” from Brower Spring near the
Montana Continental Divide to the Gulf of Mexico. Inspired by
that trip and others, he has self-published a book called “River
Angels”. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at the simultaneous
organization of three separate self-propelled expeditions and the
dynamic individuals who took part in those expeditions.
The book, “River Angels,” also introduces the world to a
burgeoning network of altruistic “river angels”-riverside
citizens who not only assist long-distance paddlers, but also
help preserve and promote the rivers they love.
Rod Wellington spent eight unfulfilling years frowning his way
through a landscaping job he despised. In 2011, he parked his
lawnmower for the last time and enthusiastically began pursuing
his true passion: adventure. Now he smiles every day.
On April 2, 2013, Rod became the first Canadian (and first North
American) to kayak the Missouri-Mississippi river system from
source to sea, a distance of 3800 miles/6100km. The solo journey
took 256 days to complete. Rod’s triumphant arrival at the Gulf
of Mexico marked the completion of Stage One of his Magnificent
Seven Expedition, a personal quest to descend the longest river
system on each continent from source to sea using only
human-powered transportation (on foot, kayak and raft). He
estimates it will take 15 years to complete the project. Rod
plans to write a book about each of the seven journeys.

PBS SHOW - Huntsville State Park, Laqborcitis Creek, Galveston Island, #2703
Program 2703. Air dates October 28-November 3, 2018 & April 28-May 4, 2019
Huntsville State Park, Laborcitas Creek & Galveston Island
Huntsville State Park
Huntsville State Park opens a door to 2000 acres of outdoor adventure. You can camp, mountain bike, and of course fish the day away on Lake Raven. Your East Texas Pineywoods adventure awaits.
Lone Star Land Steward: Laborcitas Creek Ranch
In 1990, current owners Berdon and Rolanette Lawrence began their loving relationship with this landscape, named the Laborcitas Creek Ranch. The ranch includes 16,000 acres of mostly classic brush country but also 40 acres of valuable wetlands. Bucking the trends of fragmentation and non-native invasive grasses, the Laborcitas Creek Ranch is adding acreage and diligently restoring native habitat to benefit diverse wildlife, from game animals to waterfowl and more.
Mobile Storytellers
The ancient art of storytelling gets a new twist when a group of students attempt to tell the story of Garner State Park using nothing but their phones.
Copperhead Country
A slithery copperhead sliding around your backyard is just about the last thing you would want to run into. Well imagine hundreds of them coming out, as you have a copperhead honey hole of sorts. That’s exactly what’s happening to one Texas landowner. He used to eliminate them, now he saves the snakes for science.
