That is really beautiful.

That is really beautiful.

It's one of my favorite places. I am regularly reminded of how lucky I am to live here; it's a sort of paradise.





A paradise where we all suffer from vitamin D deficiency and are neurotic and often anemic and suicidal, but still.

Haha, I feel the same way about home. As much as I love some of the dramatic, rocky shores and mottled skies, I wish I could go for a decent hike without having to drive a few hours to do it.

That's one thing nice about here. Eagle Creek is 40 minutes East, and most of the other hikes I go on regularly are within the city limits.

Hubby out of the blue asked me where I'd like to go for a few days to a week in state.
But not the typical touristy places (ie Orlando is out. So is the beach sadly.)

Anyone know of places to go in Florida that are relatively inexpensive that would be cool for a mini vacation?

[East Coast Hustle]

Fernandina Beach is nice and not all that touristy (at least last time I was there).

And really, if you're not going to a beach what's the point of Florida?

[Sita]

I'd love to go but husband hates the beach. He doesn't like how the sand gets in everything and refuses to swim in the ocean.

Leave him at home or a hotel or a strip club. Just make sure he only has cash, no plastic.

Out of curiosity, what is the average elevation of the trail?

The Pacific Crest, or Forest Park?

The Crest, though that's a pretty awesome looking park.

You live in Florida.

Trade that man in and get another one, because he's clearly defective. Or just get him polarized sunglasses. They at least show you where the bull sharks are off the sandbar.

Stung by stingray, brushed by a nurse shark (they're like kitties!), chased out of the water by a tiger shark at Weedon Island, caught and ate her own blacktip shark, sat on a cownose ray (don't ask), still goes in the Gulf of Mexico, but not the North Atlantic, because of the jellyfish and Portuguese Men-o-war. Fuck those things.

The trick is, you get the oxygen bottle in the shark's mouth, then you shoot it.

My brother has wanted to try this for years. True story. Though his rig involved a harpoon gun.

A harpoon ain't puncturing a pressure vessel, no matter how fast you shoot it.

I've lived in Florida my whole life. Been to the beach 3 times at most. I've grown to accept that the beach is just something for me to daydream of.
He doesn't like the idea of swimming with any fish around. Doesn't matter if that fish is a shark, ray or minnow.
And of course he's defective, he married me
