Hiking in the park
|
 |
We decided we like the canopied maritime forest more than the exposed pine forest
|

Looking at the pioneer campground shower facilities

Banana spiders and their webs are everywhere

 |
Nice lagoon in the park
|
 |
With resident alligators
|
 |
We loved this trail located next to the lagoon
It seems most people go the state parks to fish. Not many people anywhere else.
|
 |
"Grandma" and her grandkids were fishing in the lagoon. We talked to her grandson on the other side of the lagoon before we headed out on our hike. We were pleasantly surprised when we found out the trail just looped around the lagoon and took us to the other side where grandma and the big gator below were.

The boardwalk burned several years ago and hasn't been rebuilt yet. Too bad. This is the neatest part of the park.

Resting in the air conditioning

Pair of woodpeckers doing additional damage to the nature center building that closed a few years ago due to lack of funding
|
 |
We went out in the evening for another stroll and saw that grandma and her crew were still there. They had just hooked a turtle, but luckily for grandma the line broke and she didn't have to deal with it. That's a long time to be fishing in the sweltering heat.

 |
There was a ranger led twilight kayak trip, but Adam wasn't comfortable being in a kayak around the gators so we passed
|
 |
Back to the Trembling Earth trail for the sunset
|
 |
Making a fire back at the cottage
|
 |
Not quite as good as the seafood platters in St Mary's

Reading with Adam before bed
