Day 248: River Bluff Circle, DeBary, FL Mostly sunny and warm. Blue Springs State Park is a delightful secret. Glen casually mentioned this park to us yesterday and we thought we should check it out. Admittably the weather was pleasant, but this park is loaded with manatees, fish and waterfowl in the clearest water you’ve... Continue Reading →
Day 247: River Bluff Circle, DeBary, FL Sunny and warm. We tried the boat out! Glen and Dee live maybe a half mile from the St John’s River and a public boat ramp is right there.

Day 240: Tallahassee Walmart Partly sunny and warm. Down to the big peninsula of Florida. But we wanted to check out The Big Bend, or the inside of the elbow of Florida.
