The End of the Trip--March 2013

From Turkey Fork Recreation Area we headed for Florida. We stopped at Rocky Bayou State Park near Niceville.  We used the park as our base to visit friends in Ft. Walton Beach and to do a little geocaching. As many of you know we wanted to find our 4000th cache before getting home. Our site at Rocky Bayou was on the corner near two walking trails.
 This was the view down one of the trails.
 The view from the boat ramp was peaceful the day we were there. We could imagine how busy the water could be on a sunny weekend.
 From Rocky Bayou we drove a short distance to Tyndall AFB. From Tyndall we went to Mexico Beach to do some geocaching. There is a cache hidden  near this canal, but we couldn't find it. Turns out we couldn't find it last time we visited the area either!
 We did find the cache near the beach.
After spending a week at Tyndall we headed home, eight caches short of our goal. Once again we had a great trip, but it was nice to be home--even if it was only for a short time.
