Sunday Safari – Boyd Hill Nature Preserve – St. Pete, FL


Was the perfect day for hiking here today, with Tropical Storm Isaac skimming Florida…overcast and windy, made it cooler, and kept the skeeters off a bit. Trekked across the bay, into St. Pete. Enjoyed Boyd Hill a lot. I recommend it. Hope you like today's pictures.

PIX Sunday Safari – Desoto Park, McKay Bay


I was asked why no pups lately. It's been too hot. And then all week I was wanting to take a pup…so Molly and I two-wheeled it on the Wing. Yep. It was too hot for her, even though she got several wades in. I thought she was gonna fall over, the poor thing. She's gettin' too old for long hikes anyway.

Hope you enjoy the pix.
We were wanting to sit under this fountain by the time we were done

 This is 'The Moll'





 Aaachoo
 Downtown Tampa



This is a recycle material power plant we hiked around...I just thought it was a cool picture



Eerie...a city popping out of the swamp
Yep...Molly was hot...and tired


Since Moll got a baff...the other two did too. And it wasn't even Saturday night)


Have a great week.

PIX Sunday Safari – Alafia River State Park

Excellent park for hiking and enjoying nature. If you live around Tampa…consider visiting. Hope you like the pictures. 
The park was once a phosphorous mine. They did an excellent job cleaning up...well...nature is resilient  anyway. 

Yep...the cover of the water is GREEN. 





I like spiders. There were lots at this park.














Awwww...bufferlies

Yep...I got rained on. But it cooled me off.


Have a great week.
