BLACKWATER RIVER - 10/27/14 . . .


Our sunrise was beautiful here this morning on the river as well. Today was the day of many states. It didn't take us long to finish getting through Arkansas. Then came Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and finally landing in the Florida Panhandle for the evening. Back to the heat, humidity and land of bugs!


Along our journey today and once we crossed the Mississippi River the scenery definitely changed. No more fields of cotton, beans, corn and squash. Now there is green grass, big trees, lakes, beaches and finally we got to see the ocean. 




Base camp for this evening is Blackwater River State Park. Without a reservation we were lucky to find availability here. The area is totally a true backwoods Florida! Our campsite is nice, good size and has full hook-ups. Hopefully we will have a little time to explore Blackwater tomorrow.
