Exploring Sawgrasslake Park

Two guys , David and Virgin , joined me on a nice , laid back walking tour of Sawgrass Park.  The weather was perfect , not too hot ,  not too cold and perfectly sunny! The boardwalks in this park are great for a leisurely walk and for viweing fauna as well as flora.  Since you are raised up a few feet you can get a unique view of the plants and how they grow.  

We saw quite a few animals.  Colorful ducks that David named "drag ducks" ( after , well you know...); several baby Alligators; a hawk carrying a big snake!  This relaly is a jewel in the rough unexplored by many who live here since it is unexpected to have such wildlife and trees right in the center of the city.

Thanks for David and Virgin for making this an interesting day for me as they both had many unique and varied topics that we discussed as we walked around. As always , it's great to meet like minded gay men in a setting outside the bar scene!  :-)

This park is relatively unknown by the locals!  It has over a mile of Boardwalks and several other trails as well.  Also boasts an Observation Tower where one can observe all of Sawgrass Lake from one vantage point!  We will meet near  my house in Harris Park neighbor hood and carpool to the park.  Its about 5 minutes from my house.  I was told we will be guaranteed to see at least one Crocodile!  There is also an extensive outdoor Arboretum for us to explore.  This event will last about 2 hours or so.  Dogs on a leash are allowed but discouraged.  If there is interest we can also ride our bikes to the park!  :-) Leave a note on the sign up page if you would like to bike to the park.  Unless everyone wants to then we will go by car.  Nobody should feel excluded if they don't want to bike!  This is meant to be a relaxing hike.
