Now is the time to come to Florida to avoid the snow and ice. The weather is beautiful and things are busy. This year the prices are right and you can enjoy Florida without spending a lot of money as it was before the hurricanes.
Gas is cheap and road trips to favorite spots around the area are plentiful. The national parks are a place to start. Sarasota has a swampy paradise full of interesting creatures to see and camping is available. Friends who have been to Mayakka River State Park says camping there is interesting because the bears and the raccoons are into everything they can find. They are stealing food and getting into coolers. If you like wildlife that is a first hand view of critters.
There is an interesting walk way through the tree canopy that gives a birds eye view of the park and it's inhabitants. Click on the link about to check out.
