Myakka River State Park
Fortune smiles once again and we got a campsite in Myakka River SP. Its a lovely area near the Myakka Lake. Lots of birding here and hiking trails. It dumped rain last night but we were high and dry this morning when the weather cleared. We all voted to go to the Marie Selby Botanical Garden in Sarasota, where I visited back in January. What a difference three months made. Lots of perennials and annuals in bloom as well as orchids. The last visit was the day before a Paul Gauguin exhibit was to open so the conservatory was closed where many of the exotic orchids are displayed. What an amazing display. We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit, had lunch in the cafe and spent a relaxing day doing something different. We were able to extend our stay here another night fo will get some hiking in tomorrow.
