The Storm has passed
Hurricane Ian has come and gone and I’ve been thinking about the effects on so many others here in Florida. It’s all very sobering. Sobering and sad. The effects for me and loved ones in the State were minimal. Because so many of us… Continue Reading “The Storm has passed”

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”

Now, that’s one of my fave days, to be sure! We do observe this auspicious day each year and I’m thinking of some of the trails I have known and loved. The banner photo is of one tiny stretch of the Florida Trail. This… Continue Reading “National Trails Day”
Quick Trip Back to the Beach
It had been about three months since I had made a beach visit. And that’s way too long. Because it’s been difficult — as well as risky, of course — to get to the shore, I’ve been eager to get some sand in my… Continue Reading “Quick Trip Back to the Beach”
