Little Manatee River State Park
Another pleasant weekend with the family: Friday and saturday nights. Got there at dusk, managed to get set up as darkness fell. We brought the bikes and enjoyed the 2 mile ride to and from (4 mile) the ranger station twice and multiple 1/2 rides and loops around the campground including in the near pitch blackness of last night with just a sliver of a moon. The river is disappointing to look at - maybe canoeing would be enjoyable but it seem to be a very narrow, tannin creek, not a river. There was the typical playground for June which was enjoyed. June and I painted pictures during the afternoon under the awning. Finally, it is cool enough to enjoy the outside. We stayed in Site 18 which was on the other side of the bathrooms -but we could cut through the opposite site when no one was occupying it for a shortcut. Other than the bike riding and seeing people ride their horses, this park does not have a real draw to return. We'll keep exploring.
