Frosty Morn

Woke up to 27 degrees and a heavy frost. It has turned out to be a pretty sunny day with a high of 45. Except for stepping out briefly to get some photos, I've not been motivated to go out. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

Eden State Park

Eden State Park is always a stop we have to make. We feel in love with it the first time we visited. The property used to belong to a timber family and they donated it to the state of Florida. (For more history, see last year's post). The huge live oaks dripping with Spanish Moss, a magnificent collection of camellias and ferns are just a few features on this spectacular property. It is a sure-fire way to lower the blood pressure.

    What a wonderful place. It lowers the BP just looking at pictures of it.

    When I retire, I hope to get another camper and continue visiting the state parks I missed the first go around. Very pretty. Thanks for posting. I started working two jobs the camper was sitting there, so I sold it. Mary

    A lovely park and your vacation home rocked! I don't blame you for not cooking on vacation. It wouldn't be one then.

    Looks rather tranquil and inviting. Lovely photos. Must keep that one on the list of interesting places to visit.

    I enjoy Southern gardens so much! I hope to see this garden some day too.

    Some friends of mine love this house so much they actually built a replica of it and live in it now.
