This trip will be a return to the panhandle of Florida. We haven't been there in a while, but we've always had a good time in that part of the state. There are a lot of great state parks and National Forest campgrounds there. There will still be a lot of snowbirds using up a lot of the campsites while we'll be there, so we may have some trouble landing a good spot.
The Casita has had all of its repairs completed. We have the new awning taken care of and the new water heater has been installed, plus the bad leak that was at the intake to the freshwater tanks has been fixed. It will be great to use the trailer again. This is just about the longest we've had without a major trip in it since we first brought it home in 2005.

If your photos are anything to go by, it's going to be a fantastic trip. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteMost people think of amusement parks and hotels and crowded beaches when they think of Florida. But the state has a surprising amount of wilderness with a dizzying array of wildlife. We know where those places are and head straight to them.

ReplyDeleteGood. Let's hope they keep thinking that. The less people who know, the better, right? ;-)
Indeed. What often amazes me is that we often find so much solitude on some of our kayaking excursions. The last one we took there we didn't encounter one other person.
