    I cracked up at the "ALLIGATORS NO SWIMMING" sign! I mean, c'mon, you can't announce to alligators that they're not allowed to swim! That would just be cruel. HAHA! Beautiful section of trail.

    We used to go to the yearly folk festival in White Springs but now we go to Seattle’s Folk Festival during the end of May every year.

    Those views and sunset are amazing. We paddled the Suwannee River last year so it brings back a lot of great memories.

    What a great section of trail! I'm glad you took the time to go inside that little museum at the park - I love hidden gems like that (and animatronic chickens!). Nice to see you back uploading again, I hope you are feeling safe and are continuing to enjoy your journey! Thanks for taking us along with you!

    I just love your videos. I live in Florida and find nothing better than it's wild beauty- love me the forest and open plains. Florida is so much more than beaches. So thank you for showing that!

    13:41 Thank you Kelly for including the poster board calling out the diorama. I did a double take when I saw the slave nice an happy by the water with some watermelon, dancing etc. When you think things have come so far and you see a glorified version of history like that, crazy.
    Other than that loving your trip on the FT and hope the tram stays safe

    Only class 3 rapids in Florida. Camped there many times with my son's scout troop cannoning the Suwannee from Okefenokee Swamp to the gulf. Trip took a little over two weeks split between 2 years.

    I love the Suwanee!....you discovered the rapids I canoed the Suwanee when the water level was low missed the chance to paddle the rapids! I love when the azaleas are blooming!

  • @rosemarymcleod4074
    @rosemarymcleod4074 Год назад +1

    This section of the trail is so beautiful. Also the fishing is great in the Suwannee. A lot of people go canoeing from the Spirit of the Suwannee down river to Gibson Park. Stay safe and enjoy the rest of your journey.

      Had a waste water treatment incident

    • @moorewr
      @moorewr Год назад

      @S. M. I have not heard about any such incident though, who knows, this being FL. The color is tannins and and the foam is from the amount of algae etc always present in the water…

    • @moorewr
      @moorewr Год назад

      The Suwannee is some of the cleanest water in FL, though.

  • @Michael-ys9kq
    @Michael-ys9kq Год назад

    I'm so excited that you've made it to this area of the trip. Please be on the lookout! You will start to walk right by springs that feed into the Suwanee and are SOOOO enjoyable to stop and take a break in! I've hiked about 90 miles of the area you are in, several times, and loved it. The bugs... not so much... especially ticks!

  • @user-David-Alan
    @user-David-Alan Год назад

    I hope someday you get to kayak on the Suwannee. A little further south from where you are on this video are crystal clear springs that feed the river that you can swim in. The state also has campsites setup alone the river for kayakers. Stay well and be safe.

    Now this was a day on the FT that I truly envied you guys. Plus this episode had danger (I thought you were going to jump in that black water and that didn't seem like such a great idea) and I thought we might see someone topple into the river (but we didn't). And some of the shots of the river were gorgeous!

    Hey Kelly! I’ve loved following your FL trail videos, you make the trail look fun but …. Lol. It still freaks me out. Ha ha ha
    Please say “Hi” to “Not so bad” & “Sugar” for me. I hiked around them both on my AT thru hike with my son.
    It’s awesome to get to see both their faces.
    Now carry on !
    Keep on trucking
