I went scouting trails in the Ocala national Forest our main goal was just a get way from town for a while. But we were scouting for primitive camping AKA dispersed camping.

Looking to head out for some primative camping as soon as possible. Worked out the bedroll much better blanket. Looks like every thing will pack on to my vintage snow shoe style chair that will be the pack frame.

Rain building for the next several days the cold front. Cool night great time to head out.. Looking to head into the bush, general gun season is about 3 weeks off so dispersed camping is open.

It will be new moon so plenty dark!

Morning after Hurricane Dorian with off shore winds

We sure lucked out, .47" of rain max wind gust 21 mpg.
Forecast track of hurricane Dorian at one time looked like it would hit the entire state of Florida bottom to top.

We get more fro average afternoon thunder storm!

Looks like it did do some damage to the beach and there was costal flooding. 1 bridge on cr310 was closed but it was already close being flooded before the storm. I travel that road to the spring to get drinking water. 1week before the storm we stocked up on water it was nearly flooded.

Lucky we have no damage in the yard just need to mow the grass.

Still watching the tropics for any future storm 3 more months of hurricane season, With 1 potential storm 🌀 brewing.
