Woke up this morning temp 61 low humidity! Really got my camping blood to stirring. I have been working on shop project 3 wheel recumbent trike, more on that later.

Today I'm to be rechecking camp gear for Fl Trail Hike. May have about a week of 60 at night low 80 daytime.

Getting excited rewaterproffed the TEEPEE, should be ready now it's been 3 weeks smell should have dissipated. I used bees wax,linseed oil, turpentine more or less traditional oil cloth treatment for cotton canvas.

I took trip to beautiful local area near South Ponte Verdra Beach, and I stopped buy the visitor education center at the GTM Reserve.

We then spent some great time on the beach, this is wonderful beach to explore especially among all the surrounding development.
The beach here is relatively undeveloped, as pristine as you could expect costal area to be now days. Very reminiscent of my child hood growing up in South Fl. beach here is similar to breaches in Miami Ft Lauderdale area.

Seemed like nice day for ride in the Ocala National Forest, wanted to check on some of our favorite camp spot's. We have been having lots of rain everyday. Most of the local lakes that have been dry for many years now are full pool. Rivers and streams bank full!

While on one of the Forest Roads we came upon Immature Red Shoulder Hawk. It was just sitting in the road, so I stopped and it just sat there.
