It was a good trip over and very scenic and hilly on the first part. We got in about 1PM and our site was still occupied. The man at the front desk took pity on us and gave us site 18 instead. This was our first site here that we had several yesrs ago. We went down to the boat launch to fish and Joan had a nice bass on for a few seconds, but it got off. That was our only action. We went to Applebee’s for dinner. It is supposed to get down to 38 degrees tonight. We will be glad to get home tomorrow. It will be the longest leg of this trip.
Cottonhill COE (April 3, 2018)
We were on site 30, which is back in a cove. We fished after dinner and John caught a small bass, which he released. It was very windy and it rained in the night. It also sprinkled a little while we were getting ready to leave.
Lake Seminole SP (April 2, 2018)
It was 222.2 miles here from Nature Coast Landing RV Resort, and a pleasant, but longer drive than typical for us. Interstate 10 was very busy, but thankfully only about 25 miles of our trip. We got in and set up on site 30, which is nice, fairly level, although a little sunny in the afternoon. We tried to fish from shore, but like the last time we were here, way too weedy to be successful. Our neighbors had a limb come down on their site narrowly missing their Jeep. It was big enough to have caused serious damage. It gave us an opportunity to meet them and chat for awhile about things if the Lord. In the morning, we took a hike on the Gopher Tortoise trail in the fog, but didn’t see any of the trail’s namesakes. We did enjoy several varieties of wild flowers.

January 22, 2018 Hunter Springs Park
We tried to fish in the springs there, but there were way too many manatees to do so without the risk of hooking one. John caught a small jack crevalle and a lady fish. Not quite what we were hoping for but removed the skunk.

Joan catches a nice spotted bass in a lake in Lakewood Ranch. We each caught a couple this size.

We met cousins Dave and Marty at Linger Lodge, near Lakewood Ranch. This is a destination place that is truly old Florida. It has very good food also.
