Tallie is still with us and doing great. She fit in perfectly with our family. She took over almost immediately but Buddy still (thinks he) rules the roost....LOL!
In March we went to St. Andrews State Park, Panama City, FL, to meet up with our friends Barb and Ron from Navarre, FL.
Sites 37 and 39 at St. Andrews. Our camper and their motor home.
In April we met up with them again at a great little place in Keaton Beach, FL....Old Pavillion RV Resort, a really cute little Mom and Pop style campground directly on the Gulf. We already made reservations to return next April for 2 weeks. Thanks, Karen at Florida/Georgia Camping for the tip on this little gem.

Had a great time exploring the area and finding some new restaurants. One day we took a picnic lunch and found a picnic area at Bald Point State Park.

We managed to get the Kayak out for a few paddling trips.
That's us beside the 2 palm trees.

We stayed at Keaton Beach for 10 nights then moved over to Chiefland to visit with our cousin at her place. She has a great set-up for visiting campers, with full hook ups!

Suwanee River at Lafayette Blue Springs State Park
Many of the Springs are closed to swimming due to high water levels from local flooding of the rivers. Suwanee River was 5 to 6 feet above normal.
Flooded walkway and stairs going down to Lafayette Blue Springs. Notice the tarnish colored water from the flooding.
Peacock Springs was one of my favorites. Just beautiful and clear water. Divers love this springs with over 33,000 feet of underwater passages and one of the longest underwater cave systems in the U.S. Only divers with cave certification are allowed to explore the caverns.
Peacock Springs beautiful reflections.
Look close to see the 2 divers (or click to enlarge).
We are now back at Little Tallapoosa Park in Carrollton, GA, for a couple of weeks to see some more little league games and visit family and mother's for Mother's Day.
