More Suwannee River Rendezvous

I have just a brief entry for you today. One of my readers requested photos of this RV park and although I had shared some from the more rustic side of the property in earlier posts, today I am showing the section where the larger RVs reside and I've thrown in a few more shots of the Suwannee River from another location as well. Click here for photos.

More Off the Beaten Path

Today's exploration took me through the Peacock Springs State Park, only a short distance from Mayo, FL, but considerably off the highway via a single lane dirt road with plenty of ruts and potholes. In addition to the spring itself and one of the largest cave complexes associated with such a spring, there is a nice trail that takes hikers on a path over the water-filled caverns below. I didn't hike the entire trail since I was not properly prepared, but most of these photos are of sights and signs along the part of the pathway that I did navigate.

More Along the Suwannee

The Suwannee through Spaghetti

Today's installment is just to share a few more views of this area along the Suwannee River. This stretch of the river is known to be home to some 'gators and snakes; however, there were none in evidence in this excursion.

This park is home to Convict Spring which does not have nearly the flow of other springs in the area, but you can read an interesting exploration account here.

Accommodations here include cabins and other larger living arrangements as well as full-service RV sites, sites with fewer utilities and primitive sites that include nothing but a spot for your tent, but are located right on the banks of the river.

Today's photos with captions can be found here.
