Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park, White Springs, Florida

October 19, 2021October 19, 2021Chris and Carol Leave a comment

A rather long name for a small Florida State Park. Located in North Central Florida along the border with Georgia. The world famous Suwannee River runs through the park.

Cedar tree along the banks of the Suwannee River. Floods are common along this river and the trees show the effects.

Not much water in May when this picture was taken. Late Spring in Florida can be quite dry.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Abandoned Souvenir Shop – faded colors

October 2, 2021October 2, 2021Chris and Carol 2 Comments

An abandoned Florida souvenir shop and package store located along US Highway 17 just south of the Georgia Florida border. I enjoy poking around in buildings like this as the photographic possibilities are limitless. These images were taken back in the Spring of 2017 and at that time the buildings hadn’t been tagged with graffiti.
