We arrived at this state park without a reservation which was really hard on John -- he just knew we were too late to get any site at all. As it turned out, this is a huge park with lots of sites available.
This area is made up of tall trees, low ferns on high hills (hammocks) surrounded by swampy areas. The camp was built by the CCC in the late 30's, before WWII. It has several miles of nature trails and an 8 mile bicycle route, on which we rode for just 3 miles. It was a challenging trail because of soft sand. John cussed at me several times because it was my idea to ride it! Oh well, I thought it was fun. And we got to see our first alligator.
The weather has been delightfully warm until today when we woke to rain. Yesterday we worked on our golfing skills by playing on a 9-hole executive course. I beat John by 2 strokes!!
We are finally caught up with our blog using the internet at a coffee house. This is were we are right now.

Please try to have all the rain gone by the time we get there next week. We would like temps in the low 80's all week also.
