Seabranch Preserve State Park

This afternoon, we visited the Seabranch Preserve State Park. The weather was gorgeous, as the high was 69, the humidity was 50%, and the wind was 6 mph. We walked approximately 6 miles of the preserve. This was a good workout because a lot of the path was sugar sand. The first portion of the trail was littered with fallen trees. I assume that this phenomenon is the aftermath of the hurricanes from a few years ago. New growth a visible, as we saw lots of young pine trees as we walked further into the preserve. We also observed the palmetto heads recovering from a recent burn/fire. I am glad that we did not attempt to bike this, as the suger sand would have made it very unpleasant.

Hey, Joe, thanks for the comments on Seabranch and your photos - thinking of heading over there today and your article and pictures provided some good info for what's to be seen.
