Myakka

We’re staying at Myakka River State Park. Our first choice for a campground was full, but this has been a good park. There’s good hiking trails and the campsites are excellent. We can only get internet after a 3 miles drive and cell phone service is good around 2.5 miles, but all that means that I can relax and read a good book. 

During my first morning walk, I saw a forest of palm trees and an alligator along the water.

A family of raccoons walking along the road during the evening.

And the best was seeing these two eagles off in the distance.
