Birthday Adventure in Ocala

For my 39th birthday I decided to visit my sister Jenny in Ocala.

Setting up my tent in my sister’s yard.



Got it put together just before it started raining.



Sitting in the tent making sure there was no leaks. 


I took this shot of the moon around 6am. 


Jenny made me breakfast in bed in the tent. 



On our way to explore the Silver River. 








Jumping in for a quick swim.

A little frog outside my sister’s door. 


On Sunday some other family members came up to Ocala and we visited Juniper Springs. 



Mom and Dad.



Taking a little walk on some of the trails inside the park.





Lovely little butterfly.





This little grasshopper fell off a tree and landed in the path in front of me.




Taking a walk in the woods behind my sister’s house.

Went out for practical shoes and came back with stilettos.
