Picnic shelter. It rained overnight.

Primitive campsite






























I love the limestone banks of the Suwannee.  The geologic features that leads to the many springs that feed the River


















































Squirrel!






In my imagination, I think, the limestone is not natural. It is ruins of an ancient civilization.  The Suwannee River, a grand highway.

I lucked out in getting a campsite, Thanksgiving Weekend.  It is a small campground, and a few sites are left open for social distancing.  I pulled the trigger a bit late for this trip, after thoughts of going to Key West were canceled by covid concerns.
