Return to Lake Louisa
It was last week when I had another chance to pitch my tent at Florida’s Lake Louisa State Park. I had a blast. My girlfriend and I had camped there twice before and we’ve made three day visits there to take advantage of the… Continue Reading “Return to Lake Louisa”
The Silver Springs Monkeys and Monkey Day
Many Floridians have heard the story about how the area around what is now Silver Springs State Park here in Florida is practically overrun with Monkeys. They were brought in to be bit players in a 1930’s Tarzan Movie — so the story goes… Continue Reading “The Silver Springs Monkeys and Monkey Day”
August 30th is here, and…
…and it’s National Beach Day! Happy to say that I’m heading out in a few hours to get in on the party! If you’re anywhere near the coast–any coast–I hope you’ll get some sand in your shoes today. That’s my plan exactly! Just threw… Continue Reading “August 30th is here, and…”

Because of work commitments, our vacations are generally of the weekend variety. Which may or may not actually fall on a weekend, by the way. In our most recent getaway, we had occasion to camp for two nights at Jetty Park in Cape Canaveral.… Continue Reading “Two Nights at Jetty Park”

Black Cat Boss
I don’t know this ebony cat’s name but I do know he’s the Top Cat at Gemini Springs Park. This not-so-well-known park is beautiful. You can find it in Volusia County, just inside the town limits of Debary. That’s about 20 minutes or so… Continue Reading “Black Cat Boss”
A Visit to Bok Tower Gardens
Joan and I had the pleasure of visiting Bok Tower Gardens a couple of weeks ago and had a great time. And I did get a slew of photos. I’ll be able to get a handful of them into this posting. The gardens at… Continue Reading “A Visit to Bok Tower Gardens”
Not Littering but Environmental Crime
I came across a story on Wednesday about a Florida man who had just been arrested for the crime of littering. Felony littering, that is. Our Department of Environmental Protection was on the case. As with any crime, any bad act, sometimes the offender… Continue Reading “Not Littering but Environmental Crime”
We Could Bearly Stand It!
Joan and I have annual passes for the Brevard Zoo. We really like being supporters and go when we can. We never fail to stop by and see their resident Black Bear, Cheyenne. An orphaned cub, she was adopted at about four months as… Continue Reading “We Could Bearly Stand It!”
