I got a chance to explore Sylvan Lake Park at long last. I had put off checking this large complex out for almost a year. Sylvan Lake Park has a lot to see and do. Even compared to normal large parks, this one has a lot to impress. When I first got here almost a year ago and realized the
I explored Spring to Spring Trail North 4 for my next adventure. I started at a bridge crossing railroad tracks, and there was plenty more to be excited about. Spring to Spring Trail North 4 started things off with one of my favorite features on the trail. I’m talking of course about the bridge visible in every one of the
I explored Spring to Spring Trail North 3 for my next adventure. There were some new additions to the landscape, as well as the standard Volusia County Swamps. For the first segment of Spring to Spring Trail North 3 I found the same sort of environment as the last part. This entire section was owned by Duke Energy. And lots
After a bit of a delay, I returned to the trail to explore Spring to Spring Trail North 2. This section had a very different feel from the last part. The first leg of my adventure down Spring to Spring Trail North 2 took me beyond the park where I stopped last time and past several homes. This section of
As I followed the Spring to Spring Trail North, I found Rob Sullivan Park. It was large enough to devote an entire post. Let’s see what I found. Rob Sullivan Park has a clear theme that anyone visiting can see. In fact, even the sign at the entrance tells you all about this place. The park is mostly dedicated to
As promised I went on another adventure. Specifically I found an extension to a trail I had explored in the past. Let’s see what I found on Spring to Spring Trail North 1. The Trail Unfortunately the photos for my adventure down Spring to Spring Trail 1 got messed up. The upload order didn’t correlate at all to the order
I found that I had not fully explored the Seminole Wekiva Trail. So I returned to check out the extension and see where it went. Mile Marker 16.5 Back in Seminole County meant less swamp and more Mile Markers as I started my adventure down the Seminole Wekiva Trail Extension. Instead of those endless seas of green, I passed fancy
For my next adventure, I traveled to George W Starke Park. Not far from where I live, its location is a bit secluded. George W Starke Park is located in an isolated corner of Sanford. And so the park is quiet and feels separate from the world. Which works perfectly for it. Minus a train horn in the background, there
After a long break, I decided it was time to explore again. This time I set out for Bookertown Park. This spot had drawn my attention while browsing maps one day and I finally got a chance to check it out. Bookertown Park is located in a secluded neighborhood not far from Interstate 4. US Highway 17-92 isn’t far either.
I explored more of the Central Regional Rail Trail. I’m drawing close to the north end of the trail. Exciting stuff. The last several 8 mile hikes didn’t scare me away from coming back to Central Regional Rail Trail. And while the trail continued its way through Florida’s swamp, there was plenty else to see that wasn’t the norm. The
