Myakka State Park

Myakka River State Park is one of Florida's oldest parks! We visited in late January, and it was quite fantastic! A highlight of our time at the park was an airboat cruise. The airboat, Myakka Maiden, is the largest passenger covered airboat in the world!

I didn't take many photos on the cruise because I was on.the.edge.of.my.seat the entire time! There were gators all over the place. Below is an audio clip I captured of the introductory words of Jamie, the boat's captain. He did a phenomenal job throughout the 90 minute cruise of giving us background information and a host of facts about alligators and the local ecosystem!

New Year: 2018

Happy 2018!

It's back to work, life, and regular routines today!

Justin and I headed to the Wisconsin Dells from Saturday-Monday to celebrate the Stoll Family Christmas! It was a blast to ring in the new year with this crew. 

Here are some highlights...
