“We are like children building a sandcastle. We embellish it with beautiful shells, bits of driftwood, and pieces of colored glass. The castle is ours, off limits to others. We’re willing to attack if others threaten to hurt it. Yet despite all our attachment, we know that the tide will inevitably come in and sweep the sandcastle away. The trick is to enjoy it fully but without clinging, and when the time comes, let it dissolve back into the sea.” Pema Chodron (at Daytona Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsVizDXnJXu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kki0oyw42v9x

Greatest lesson of 2018: It’s all about the journey, not the destination. When you come to a fork in the trail, which way are you drawn? Don’t just follow the map and signs because that’s where you planned to go. Blaze your own trail, take detours if your heart points you in another direction. #followyourheart #notallthosewhowanderarelost #happynewyear https://www.instagram.com/p/BsHfrzUH2mX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w6yiqyejrwwl

So much love for this beautiful area. Can’t think of a better place to end 2018 and begin 2019. Happy New Year and safe travels, y’all! (at Juniper Springs Recreation Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsG6p9YnNo0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19klg9jjscwer

So happy to be back in the land of the springs. This is the first place I ever camped as a child. I guess it made a strong impression. (at Juniper Springs Recreation Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsBy6LJnVCM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12tw8d2ad3bsn

I can’t think of a better place for a manatee to take a nap: Three Sisters Spring, protected by @usfws 🐟 No filter, not a swimming pool, this is a natural spring. #LoveFL (at Three Sisters Springs) https://www.instagram.com/p/Brd3MsTHDVO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vztwk7wkzjg0

No clouds tonight but the Spanish Moss was a mighty fine substitute. #sunset (at Sebastian, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrRFZjxn0eG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tbrjy63m081u
