It was cold Saturday - windy, eyes-watering, go-to-Target-buy-a-hoodie-cold, not just Florida cold. I never plan well for my photo hikes. I tend to forget things, especially things I need - like hiking shoes, extra batteries for my camera (you know, to use if/when the battery in your camera dies when you're an hour from home), … Continue reading Glove weather

There is very little change in fall foliage - palm trees don't drop their fronds or turn luscious shades of gold and red - and it doesn't get cold (Deep South cold) until mid- … Continue reading Winter’s ‘a comin’
