Trip is over….we haul out today. 3.26.15

This morning Cammy continued his cruise. Isn’t that a beautiful root system? I love the Cyprus Trees and their knees. You can see why they hold the island together.102_1356c

Look how close it swam to this houseboat….I don’t think either person saw it. I’ll bet he’s longer than that little fishing boat they tow.

Here he goes again…I never tire of watching these guys…you can see his tail is as long as his body.

We took down the screens …put everything away that needed it for travel and headed for Lake Monroe Park and the boat ramp.

This pair of Ospreys were getting ready to mate. She has her wings folded down around her body.

Normally we can squeeze under this railroad bridge but the river is up and they have to raise it for us.

After we pass under it the ramp where we launch is to the left. There is one on the right but we wouldn’t leave the truck and trailer there over night or for a week….might not have batteries or tires when you come back. Great for day use.

Lake Monroe is just beyond the I 4 bridge in the distance.

It’s been a great week. Weather has been the best. Cool nights and warm days. It seems like we always manage to be out when it is too hot or too cold…we got lucky.

Next outing will be with the big camper for a swap meet at the Sumter County Fairgrounds. We’d like to sell the camper.
