Torreya State Park. We hiked out south to loop around past an old rock bridge. After lunch, we hiked out to see what the other campsites looked like at Rock Bluff. These are nice sites, high on a bluff overlooking the Apalachicola River.

Torreya State Park. We found out that the park also has some backpacking campsites available. We haven't been backpacking yet, so we register for a site and get our gear together. There are two sites rather close (we don't have the daylight for a long hike in), Rock Bluff is overlooking the Apalachicola River and Rock Creek is on a small creek ...

Florida Caverns State Park we find out that part of the caverns are flooded, so it's a short tour. Andrew and I have both done wild caves (not public tours, but going in with your own gear) in the past. We were surprised at the large number of formations they have for such a small cave.

There are different levels and steps leading into the water that is a beautiful clear spring green with little fishes swimming in it. Cypress trees surround and are inside of ...

Falling Waters State Park to see Florida's highest waterfall. The waterfall is actually dropping 70 feet into a sinkhole. The park is riddled with sinkholes, we saw maybe 8 or 10 in the area of a few hundred feet. This waterfall had lots of ferns and mosses growing along the sides of the sinkhole. Once again, it's winter, one of the coldest ...

Mobile, AL on the Gulf coast. We went into Fairhope and to a cute waterfront park with a public pier that was completely destroyed by the hurricanes.

Blackwater River State Park and Blackwater River State Forest. Here we boondocked for the first time on our trip. The road leading into Blackwater Creek State Park and State Forest was flooded as it crossed the Blackwater Creek. The water level was at the bottom of the bridge. We saw some locals going through it and saw we were able to judge ...
