Another Shot or Two from Trimble Park.
There must be thirty or forty docks at the park. No, that’s not an exaggeration! A view of a dock or two. This huge lake is Lake Griffin. Call Orange County Parks and Rec if you’d like to book or need info such as… Continue Reading “Another Shot or Two from Trimble Park.”
Trimble Park, Orange County’s Best-Kept Secret
If you like to do outdoor stuff, let me recommend you overnight at Trimble Park in Tangerine. (That’s the tiny town after Zellwood but before Mt. Dora!) I just wrapped up a one-dayer stay at Trimble Park and I am one happy camper! I… Continue Reading “Trimble Park, Orange County’s Best-Kept Secret”
First Watch is First Choice for Good Grub in Longwood

Fave Fotos — Yes, It’s a Beach Shot Again!
This trip was way too much fun. I learned that Long Point Park and camp ground is a really primo spot for a get-away. Of course, about a bah-jillion other nature lovers and campers agree about that. So it’s good to try to book… Continue Reading “Fave Fotos — Yes, It’s a Beach Shot Again!”

Slow and Low-The Best Damn Barbecue in Cocoa Beach
Note: this review of mine is taken from a visit in April of 2015 and originally appeared on a well-known travel site. My latest visit to this island of barbecue perfection was five days ago, and they’re still the best on the beach! This… Continue Reading “Slow and Low-The Best Damn Barbecue in Cocoa Beach”
Final Fave Foto: Meet My New Gull Friend
Ol’ Bulldog here has been known as the Gull Whisperer for a while now. I’m often amazed at how well they pose for me, and — as I’ve noted before on this blog — you never have to get them to sign a photo… Continue Reading “Final Fave Foto: Meet My New Gull Friend”
Fave Fotos: More from This Week’s Beach Trip
Liked the last one, so here are a few others from that batch. There truly is nothing I’d rather do than head over to the shore. If you live in Florida and don’t get out there to enjoy the sun and surf pretty regularly,… Continue Reading “Fave Fotos: More from This Week’s Beach Trip”
