Hiking companions

Black Labs walking
November 7, 2014January 8, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 8 Comments

These two - my furry, nuggets of unconditional love - are my always eager hiking companions. They are quick to rush out the door, straining hard against their leashes, taking me along whether I'm ready or not. Hershey, our nearly 8-year-old grandame, a Valentine’s presents from a long-gone high school boyfriend, is the calm to Asta’s amped … Continue reading Hiking companions

Summer white

May 24, 2014December 4, 2014 ~ Tara R. ~ 13 Comments

Summer is just around the corner, and even Mother Nature is bringing out her new, white fashions for the season. I stayed away from the beaches on this holiday weekend, and instead headed out to Pine Log State Forest near Ebro, FL, for my photo hike.

February 22, 2014January 10, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 14 Comments

Professor Google rescued me once again. I've visited so many of my nearby state parks, and so often, that I really wanted to find someplace new. Perusing the Florida National Trails website, I found just what I wanted. A local park (within an hour's drive), and a hidden gem. If you don't know where this … Continue reading Conservation Park

Longleaf Pines

November 17, 2013January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 18 Comments

Whenever I drive through Santa Rosa Beach, along scenic Highway 30A, I pass a sign, "for trail parking." Until today, I thought that was for the bike trail that runs parallel to the highway. My daughter and I are planning a day-long bike ride soon, so I decided to check out the site. To my … Continue reading Longleaf Pines
