Well, the cooler weather has come, at least, for a few days, and we took advantage of it to have a family hike in Gothe State Park.
First, we went down the Big Cypress Trail, and saw a huge cypress tree, approximately 970 years old.

Checking out the information on the sign. |
|
Mr. Energy with his airplane... |
|
The queen and her humble carrier. |
|
Oh, here he comes again! |
|
Mama and Daddy... |
"Wow, that's a huge tree!"
|
(The pictures don't show its size.) |
|
"Why am I down here?" |
|
"I'm not so sure about this idea..." |
|
"If I smile, will you pick me up again?" |
|
"Yay! It worked! Bo rescued me!" |
|
Here comes William too! |
Okay, the big tree was amazing. Now off to climb around the interesting part of Gothe- the old sinkholes!
|
This is the warm-up hill. |
|
Now to go down the 30' hill... |
Mama and Daddy stayed on the trail.
|
But Mama still found some rocks to jump off! |
|
LilyAnn at the base of a "huge cliff". |
|
And, in Florida, it's hard to get away from the swamps... |
|
"Uh oh, it's a long way down..." |
|
"I don't think I want to let go!" |
|
"Help!" |
Rescued by Daddy; all is well!
What a great way to spend a Friday afternoon- enjoying God's beautiful creation!
"The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein."
(Psalm 111:2)
