What a beautiful State Park. It must be so wonderful to be out and traveling again, we are really looking forward to it. Washington is slowly opening back up. Loved all the beautiful scenery and the nature walk! Thanks for taking us along. Have a wonderful week! -Jody & Chris
It felt so good to get out there again!! Thank you for coming over to visit. There are a lot of birds which we are sure you would enjoy. ~ Brad and Diana
That looks like a great place with lots to do. Fun, Fun. The trail was well marked, which I really like. I like knowing what I am seeing. I could never get in the water with the alligators or crocs.
Love love love all the trees. Really does look like a beautiful area. Awesome video! Yes watch out for the snakes! thank you fo much for sharing with us!!
Looks like a really great and nice park! Beautiful lake and I love all the trees. A lot of great amenities is a plus. I could do without the spiders though... Lol! Awesome tour! Thanks for showing us around and sharing your stay. Great video!
Right? Its Florida... and I didn't even mention the biting yellow flies lol. As far as the spiders, I grew up blazing a trail by swinging a stick ahead of me. ~ Diana
So enjoyable trail, guys! This place is really enchanting....Loved all the trees!! And kayaking.....Oh I'd love to do this!! GREAT share, ad always, my dearest friends!! Big embrace!! Wish you a wonderful new week! Renata
We love Florida state parks, Brad and Diana. Will have to check our Lake Griffin one of these days. Looks like a great place to camp. Like that it is handicap accessible. The Live Oak tree and the Magnolia tree are magnificent. Nooooo to the spider. Thanks for sharing this great video!
Awesome! Thank you! We are heading over to see you too; thank you so much for coming over and leaving a great comment. We really appreciate it. ~ Brad and Diana
Hi! Thanks for this video. My husband and I are going camping at Lk Griffin for Thanksgiving. We have never camped there. We live in Florida and take a trip to one of our state parks one a month. We are really looking forward to this one. We are bringing our canoe.
"Just the Two of Us" was by two artists actually. Bill Withers & Grover Washington Jr. I am pretty sure they both had albums with the song on it. I'm a big fan of Bill Withers. "Ain't no sunshine when she's gone" is one of my favorites. OK back to the video. 😂 Diane, that Spider! Brad didn't scare you with it. He is so good. That is such a great trail. Really close to the wildlife. I miss canoeing. I think I would like a kayak. Great video. ❤️👍👏 Donovan & Jodi
Thats it! Bill Withers; we love the song "Ain't no sunshine when she's gone" Thank you. If you liked canoeing, you would love kayaking. Really you must have one or rent one there to truly appreciate this park. We love hearing from you, our friends, super good to see you here. ~ Brad and Diana
Doggy Camp.....swimming, tennis, dance party? Love the trees rolling into the park. That tree was huge, Mother Nature in all her glory. Are those your Kayaks?
What happens at doggy camp stays at doggy camp LOL... and these were inflatable kayaks that our cousins own. the park rents normal kayaks (just not this week, as Corona was still an issue) ~ Brad and Diana
It was the iPhone laying up on the dash against the Garmin, so maybe it was rattling against it. Hmmm we were thinking about trying the GoPro, so good to know that may have issues as well. lol Yes, the tree was a Huge surprise. Thank you for coming over and commenting, we really appreciate it . ~ Brad and Diana
Nice park. Looks like a really good hike. I love the quote pedestals. That's a unique idea. Man I hate big spray, but imagine it's a necessity. Mosquitoes seem to love me way more than I love them lol. Kayaking is fun. Think I might be worried about gators there, though. Did you see any while in the kayak?
I know Will Smith did a version with his son. Yes I agree. The FL state parks are really nice. Not a fan of the spiders. lol. I have heard those hogs are dangerous as well. If I remember right FL has open season on them. The lake looks great and I agree on forgetting everything else. Great tour. Can't wait to hit some parks down there again. Thanks for the sharing.
We had a travato class b that got 18mpg, that looks like an awesome campground, how did you score that, we have been trying to get in there for a while. Larry
Oh good one! We always knew it was Bill Withers... just learned about Grover Washington Jr. Thanks for your support and reaching out to us. ~ Brad and Diana
Just curious on how you keep cool your RV at night without firing your generator. Will you use your fans to bring in air from windows instead and will it drain your batteries overnight?
Great Question. We try to stay places that are naturally cool. Last January when we stayed at Everglades National Park without hookups, their rule was no generators after 8 pm; so we cooled it off by generator and AC right till then; then used our Fantastic Fan and other fans to bring in the cooled night air. ~ Brad and Diana
It's About Time Now we are at the peace River Thousand Trails RV park and are also waiting for our daughters graduation. I think Mid July will be our departure date.
Hello Just considering one RV from Forest River, Wanted to know how the batteries work that powers your Inverter and the Fridge does it work well for your Boondocking needs?
Ok, Great question! Let me start by telling you, that while the refrigerator is capable of using 12 volts, ours is not wired for that and it uses propane or shore power. We currently do not have an inverter; however, our lithium batteries run all the 12 volt lighting and CPap etc perfectly. When we boondock, we use the generator. ~ Brad
It's About Time Now Thanks for the info I like the layout of the Forester, will accommodate lots of room to accommodate kids and fresh water tanks are bigger .Does the slide out work well? Any maintenance issues so far?
Just stumbled across your channel and I’m loving it. Wish I could take that road trip with you . Very nice trip. Enjoyed it. I love that canopy in the park New subscriber. Pls visit. Let’s stay connected
Is it possible that the young lady has a spare sister that enjoys camping, can back up a boat trailer, rebuild a few Evinrude carburetors and rustle up a decent meat loaf once in awhile...It would be a plus if she didn't talk too much but it's not a deal breaker.
@@ItsAboutTimeNow ..Will pass on the older brothers but that will bring us to the real negotiations...How much for Diana and does she put onions in the meatloaf?

Is it possible that the young lady has a spare sister that enjoys camping, can back up a boat trailer, rebuild a few Evinrude carburetors and rustle up a decent meat loaf once in awhile...It would be a plus if she didn't talk too much but it's not a deal breaker.
Ha Ha ... sorry no sisters, but several older brothers.
@@ItsAboutTimeNow ..Will pass on the older brothers but that will bring us to the real negotiations...How much for Diana and does she put onions in the meatloaf?
@@pocono49murphy96 She is too precious to sell. Sorry not sorry. You need to look elsewhere, as she is married to a very jealous man.

We made the reservations as soon as they gave the June 1 opening date, and found the opening.
