A Change of Pace




Last Saturday morning my wife & I left our snug little Pennsylvania home and began rolling south at 3:00am. With a breakfast & fuel stop in Rocky Mount North Carolina, another fuel stop in South Carolina and a couple of rest stops thrown in we arrived in Lakeland Florida at 7:45pm. When we left we had two inches of fresh snow on the ground with a freezing drizzle falling. Upon arrival we were greeted with shirt sleeve weather even though it had been dark for nearly an hour.

Monday morning Chad & I visited Lake Parker where this shot was taken as the morning mists were rising from the lake. My future post will be of some of the many images I captured on this amazing vacation. Upon arriving home this afternoon and downloading my memory cards I found that I had returned with some 1400 images.

That is an amazing trip and the pictures will take some time to digest for you. Or it would for me.
