Living in Northwest Florida, I'm within an hour of the Alabama border. I've about exhausted the state parks around here, so thought I'd take a drive to visit a park in Florala which is just over the state line. Florala ~ get it? FLORida and ALAbama, FLORALA?

I'm a little … Continue reading Enjoying it while I can
Christmas Eve Florida style

Yes, the sand really is that white; and yes, the sky really is that blue. The temps were in the high 50s, a little … Continue reading Christmas Eve Florida style
