Ft. Christmas, Florida. Nothing says Florida quite like beautiful old oak trees heavy with Spanish moss.
Long Island, Bahamas. While in search of straw hats on this relatively remote island in the Bahamas we stumbled upon this relic.

It started early. Like 10 minutes away from our front door early. “Which way are you going?” Him. “The way I always go.” Me. “Are you sure?” “Yes. This is how we just went to Micanopy. This is how I always go to the ashram. Same way.” “No, I think we went 426.” “No, we … More Off the Beaten Path Small Town Back Road Trip
