The weather has been holding steady with temps in the high 60’s to 70. Today we took a trip to Myakka River State Park. Unfortunately most of the state parks don’t allow dogs on the trails because of the alligators so Jewel hasn’t had as many hikes as we had planned for her.
The Myakka River flows through 58 square miles of wetlands, hammocks, prairies and pinelands. There is a 7-mile scenic drive that winds through the park. The area is very pretty and serene.

Within the park is the Myakka Canopy Walkway that provides access to observe life in the treetops – if only there was life to be seen. Nope, there was no visible life.
The walkway is suspended 25 feet above ground and the tower is 75 feet up. The views were pretty but no life in the treetops except us.
Back at the campground we settled in watched some TV and prepared for tomorrow’s activities.
