Whispering Pines campground near Savananah, GA
Left Florida today after 2 nights at Longpoint and drove to Savananah, GA. Last night a raccoon broke into our ice chest and stole all our oranges and apples. Yesterday was spent hiking around scout island, which is attached to our campground by bridge and also seen many birds. This place has a lot of woodstorks. Also watched Ohio State beat Michigan and that was about it. Here are some

Longpoint county park, north of Vero Beach
After we left Long Key state park we wound up at Flamingo campground in the Everglades National Park. We spent 3 nights there, and we were 40 miles from the nearest cell tower, so no cell phone or internet. It was way back in the swamp. The first night we had no electric, and had to stand in line for an hour to get an electric campsite for the next 2 nights. They said they had alligator, crocodile, and manatee, but didn't see any. Seen a lot of birds mostly common. Rode bikes a lot, temp in the 80's, lots of sun, sprinkled one day. We spent several hours watching Osprey feed their young on many nests. Today, saturday we drove north to a camground north of Vero Beach. Here are the pics.
