The Mighty Mac In Rain

Any time I saw 'The Mighty Mac' was a breathtaking affair. This particular passage was during very heavy rain. We were northbound, nearly dead center of the bridge. It is about 210 feet down to the lake, and roughly three miles from land in any direction. Mackinaw Island is to the upper right of me,... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunset on the Boardwalk

Extra Colored Monarch Butterfly

This is the Kitch-iti-kipi springs. Lisa and I went to this spring a week before we came to Florida. I've been there many times, and it is always stunning. Check it out now! Sign in to see full entry.
