Florida: Crescent Lake Park, St. Petersberg

On our way down to Janet's we stopped at this park. We were driving by and it just beckoned us. Sorry Janet and Jerry, but this park was the reason we were so late getting down to your house.

This is the strangest tree we have ever seen. It had branches that grew downward to the ground. It reminded us of stalactites that you find in caves.


In the rush for Elliot to get over to the playground, he of course stumbled.


While he was down, he discovered this purple flower that he kept for the duration of our visit to the park. It was mostly kept in my hand.

The playground.


This is an overview of one side of this lovely park. Do you see the tree to the lower left of the blue water tower in the distance...?


Well, this was Ian and Daddy walking underneath of it. I was taking the pictures on the other side. Nice zoom on the camera.


There are a LOT of different birds down in Florida. Here are some highlights from this park alone.
