Our last
full day at De Leon Springs, Florida.
Its sunny, but not 75. In fact,
it struggled all day to get to 60, and didn’t last long. And it stayed pretty
breezy.
We had
planned a drive through the Ocala National Forest, which we are living just
southeast of. So we had a day with a
plan (no deadline!) and we stuck to it.
We drove
over 70 miles, all told, through rolling small hills with solid woods (jungle,
really) up to the mowed shoulders, over rivers and streams well hidden beneath
the bridges by the trees, and through small towns filled with references to
bass fishing, BBQ, and GATOR MEAT.
We found a
park with a beach to have lunch beside… in the car. The ranger was raking the
beach with his GATOR in preparation for Sunday when the temps here will go back
to their afternoon 75 or so norm.
And we found
a pretty tree nearby to photograph as well.
That’s it
for today.
We went
home, watched a part of a movie, and took care of our monthly paperwork, bills,
etc. The internet does make this life
much easier!
Tomorrow we go
south to Merritt Island and Cape Canaveral. Its averaging 10 degrees warmer
there! 80’s again are just a few miles away, we think.
So with only
two pics from today it seems only appropriate that I take time to revisit some
of the places we’ve gone most recently where we have seen and felt the greatest
blessing from God in His creation.
I hope you
enjoy this short rewind of those scenes since I last shared some with you:
