Taking advantage of the nice weather, I ventured up to O'Leno State Park, which is north of High Springs in the center of the state. It's a nice park. The trails are well kept and you can wander on and off trail as you would like. I enjoy this aspect very much. After going over the bridge, there is a suspension bridge you cross get over the water, we roamed amongst the cypress knees. While doing so we came across this beautiful tree that had fallen over with it's base and roots pulled up from the ground. For some reason I find this very beautiful. I remember going downtown St. Augustine after a large storm and seeing the large oak on the fort green. It had been turn over in the same manner but because there had been so much rain with the hurricane, it was surrounded by water.... it's own little island. Ever since, I find these scenes very interesting and full of beauty.
