O'Leno State Park, Highpoint, Florida

 It was a relatively short drive to O'Leno State and a new campground for us for we had to cancel when we cancelled our Thanksgiving trip. We were excited with Valerie and Graham decided to join us for the last two nights of our three night stay.

Our campsite at O'Leno

On Tuesday morning we got up early for breakfast at Blue Star Diner on our way to Gainesville to the Sweetwater Wetlands Preserve. It was a beautiful sunny day and we hiked around the wetland ponds and boardwalks and saw a variety of birds and alligators. We stopped off at Trader Joe's for holiday shopping and then heading back to the park for happy hour and dinner with Graham and Valerie who were just a few campsites away.


























On Wednesday we explored the park hiking the river trail to the sink hole. We enjoyed a nice nap before happy hour and dinner with our friends,
