Highlands Hammock State Park is a great park to for camping. I just came back from a 2 night trip there.

EMAC. We seldom see much activity here from Florida members. I know the Highlands area well. your right ,it's a very nice place & not very busy this time of year. I do area rides there, close in to Sebring. Let's get a meet set there.. :P

FL E Owners & florida roadie - highlands hammock is very beautiful - I also went up to the panhandle around St MArks wildlife refuge which is beautiful and great for biking along the wetlands shore area.

Why did this thread die out? Did any E owners ever meet anywhere?

ice cream. any one want to meet for ice cream? i tried this about a month ago. roadie, i guess that i will see you a the ride on the 18th. i will have my ggm e there. if i do not talk to you have a good ride.

Moldy oldy thread-but St Marks IS beautiful, good for biking,hiking,in the fall it's in the path of migrating monarch butterflys. You can almost always see dolphins at the base of the lighthouse..:)

Ft DeSoto is great in Pinellas County.....there is a nice campground....great kayaking!! and sushi nearby...:):):):)

My daughter and son-in-law are down in Naples, but head up to Busch Gardens alot....

Went to the beach today. I figured since no one else wants to get together for a little meet, that Boo and I would have to do one alone!!!!
Here are some pics from my outing in FL!

What beach is that?

Its Pompano Beach.
Close to Fort Lauderdale.
I just took Atlantic Blvd. straight East till it ended in the water!

I have not been there in over a year. I usually go to Delray Beach or Gulf Stream.

It was pretty nice. It was 2pm on a Saturday afternoon. Pulled in found a place to park, walked right out to the water, and there were hardly any people around, and the surf was awesome!

I like the Wildlife Drive out by Cape Canaveral. :cool:

Hey all my South Florida Folks!

If you ever want to put together a meet, just let me know. I'll def show up. I know the kids with the Souped up Neons meet almost monthly over at Morikami's parking lot, maybe someone knows somewhere we could meet.....

Markam (or markum, markham??) Park is great. Just forgot how it was spelled. lol. It's in South FL. Good Mountain bike trails and a nice lil park for a picnic. I haven't been for years but have seen relatively recent pics.

Ginnie Springs is also nice. It's just north of Gainesville, FL. Float down the river and enjoy crystal clear springs.

Juniper springs has been one of my favorites. It's off of SR40 between Ocala and Daytona Beach.. 7mi canoe/kayak trail w/ canoe rentals. A very nice canoe trail IMO, the best I've seen in FL. Nice park, nice spring, lots of camp sites.

Has anyone been to Stans in Goodland ? Esp on the weekend , great time!! Next to Marco Island
