On Saturday two friends and myself went for a hike on a section of the Florida trail. Starting in the town of White Springs (Dueling Banjos playing in the background) we hiked south on the Florida trail. The trail followed the path of the Suwannee river. Florida hasn't gotten much rain this year so the river was very low. This was actually interesting to photograph because it turned a rust color and the varying depths changes the tones.
The walk is a nice change from most of the landscape I have come across in Florida. There are actually some hills. Because it was so dry, there where no signs of swamps. The only thing that would give away a previous location of swampland was Cypress Knees jutting out of the ground.
About 5 miles in we came upon a washing machine sitting in the middle of the forest. It was my assumption that this was used by the local Native Indians in the last century. My theory would be flawless if I could just figure out where they plugged the darn thing in.
For this trip I decided to wear my Chaco's (sandals). Well I figured that since there where hills, I would tighten them from there normal loose fit. After about 30 minutes, the strap wore a nice red groove into my toe. I loosened them up and I was set for the rest of the trip.
