Lake Lincoln State Park -Wesson, MS

We are here😀









Spending a few months down the bayou watching winter give way to spring including some very warm April days afforded a chance to enjoy one of our old favorites in Mississippi. 

It was time to get on the lake!

🌞🏊



























What a pristine view🌅

and there they go again!










On the lake is great, but, according to some, in the lake is much better!


😁Over and in😁





















Break time = snack time😋



Let's check out our famous Lake Lincoln bike riding hills!!

Always loved those!!




























What a ride!!





While here we happened to discover another fun fact. Beautiful Laurel, MS, home of Ben and Erin Napier of HGTV's "Home Town", is just over a one-and-a-half-hour drive away.
We certainly had to poke our noses in.

Check back soon for what'll be included on that next time!

Laura S Walker State Park

  As winter is making a heavy appearance in the Northeast, we are content being tucked away beneath beautiful Georgia pines at one of The Peach State's gorgeous state parks. Laura S Walker State Park, near the Okefenokee Swamp's northern edge, offers over 600 acres to roam. Whether exploring the trails, sitting at the lake, or taking part in any of the activities available, we have found this to be yet another Georgia jewel.  This is what we see directly across the highway each time we exit the park (daytime or lit up at night).  We are truly in the swamp. It's time to set off to find where the nearest trail leads! We walked just a bit through this beautiful area before feasting our eyes on this boardwalk over the lake. Let's stop for a little rest then a little play before heading back to the other side to celebrate the find of the day in this super-duper pinecone! Back at home, the Clam offers an outdoor living space for fun and games.   Another November ...

It is time!

  Black Hills National Forest Here are some of our recent moments. As we enjoyed more of the beauty surrounding us, it became clear that the time had come to exit the road and enter whatever God has for us next. We have been led to purchase a house in Franklinton, LA, "settle", and pursue adoption.  Nothing is easy, but when God leads and you follow, it's good.  With all of that said, here are more of our recent adventures enjoyed as transition began. Custer State Park South Dakota Needles Eye Tunnel Crazy Horse Memorial, pictured above, is a work in progress. Isn't it safe to say we all are? We don't intend to do the work ourselves. We know One who is completely capable, just, and loving. Why would we ever take matters into our own less capable hands? Life is hard, but God is good! If anyone would enjoy reading about our next adventure😉, just let us know.

Dunlawton Sugar Mill Gardens

If you'd like to visit a ten-acre expanse of beauty and history maintained by a dedicated and passionate troop of volunteers, look no further than Dunlawton Sugar Mill Gardens in Port Orange, Florida. One of the garden's prettiest features is the area at the entrance along the highway graced by this stone structure, door, and fencing reminiscent of what one might find in a secret garden.    It's very sobering to come across documented accounts of happenings of long ago as we savor the peace in an area that, then, saw unimaginable suffering and grief. We should never take for granted the ability to safely walk about at our  leisure. We enjoyed our little hike as we imagined what it would be like making sugar in the early 1800's before modern technology. It was fascinating to see some of the  equipment still in existence to this day. Below is just a glimpse of this charming place brought to us through the hard work of the gardeners who donate their time and effort...
