And The rain Came Down

In the time we were at Three Rivers more than 10 inches of rain fell (well O.K. some of it was the night before we arrived). As well as our wet day in Tallahassee, the Friday poured with rain, so we stayed near the campground, managing to catch up with emails and blog. Saturday promised to be a much better day, by the time we got underway the sun was shining happily. We were going to a neighbouring State Park – Torreya State Park.
Footnote.
The Apalachicola River (ap-a-latch-i-cola - rolls nicely off the tongue that one, though you have to attack it all in one go). is the dividing line for the two time zones Eastern and Central time, although we did not know this. Three Rivers State Park, where we camped is about 2 miles from the west bank and Torreya State Park is right on the East Bank of the river, so they are in different time zones, even though, because the river bends, Torrreya is actually west of Three Rivers State Park!
