Archaeological State Park Part II
…….Oh The Drama A while back we drove up to look at the Mullet Hole as a possible place to put the kayak in for an afternoon paddle and later I saw that there was a 1. 7 mile bike trail (that’s 2.7 km) starting there and running out to the Crystal River estuary. […]

Birds of the Chaz
…..or Birds of Many Feathers. As promised here is a selection of birds we saw on our recent paddling excursion on the Chassahowitzka River on the Florida Gulf Coast.

…or A Passion for Pineapple. I seem to have developed a preoccupation with all things pineapple. It all started back in December when we were camping at Jekyll Island and I admired the pineapple Christmas decoration by the RV behind us.
