77 Miles to High Springs, FL ......

Looking at the weather report this morning, it looks as if we have some nasty weather to the west of us that is coming our way. Luckily, most of us finished our ride today before it started to rain. We'll keep our fingers crossed about the next 2 days.
We crossed the Suwanee River today (as in the song "Way Down Upon the Suwanee River ....."). See pics. We also visited the Ichetucknee Springs. The water was clear and it was tempting to go in for a swim. I didn't have a bathing suit and really didn't want to ride 25 more miles with soggy bike shorts, so I just got my legs wet. Even that felt good because it was hot and humid.
I'm posting a pic of Rona and me that was taken a couple of days ago.

    happy that you cooled your tootsies in that very clear water, it looked so refreshing.
