A great place to get an idea of what Florida looked like before it was settled is Myakka River State Park, just east of Sarasota. On the 37 miles of trails in the park, visitors have the opportunity to see lots of wildlife, including alligators. I didn't see any gators on this trip, though, but I did happen upon an armadillo.
Sabal palms. You'll find that I like taking weird pictures of trees like this.
Grass area. I wouldn't walk there, though - lots of water.
More swampy area.
And more swamp area.
Here's that armadillo I mentioned.
Lake Myakka, with a Live Oak in the foreground.
