John Prince Park

LAKE WORTH, January 7, 8, 9 - On Saturday, we pulled into John Prince Park, an Eden-like oasis set in the middle of suburbia in Lake Worth, near West Palm Beach. We had been here two years ago and were amazed at this peaceful 700-plus acre refuge. About fifty acres are devoted to the RV park, and the rest is like one big garden. A bonus is that the park lies along the shores of Lake Osborne, and our campsite backs right on to the lake. Here's the view out our back window ...



Sunrises Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday ...



There's a paved path around the lake for walking, bike riding, and bird watching. We biked around the lake for about nine miles and took pictures of the many different birds. We plan to learn their names, but right now it's limited to "ones with long beaks," "long-legged ones," "ducks," etc. ...








Our feathered friends ...







This couple apparently resides at our campsite. They've been padding around, probably looking for a handout. We named them Herbert and Maude.



The stay at John Prince Park has been great but it's time to move on. This morning we head south to the Everglades.

Can't wait to see what you name the alligators! Having so much fun reading about your adventures and watching Tracey come to terms (read: big smiles!)with the unstructured RV lifestyle! Have fun, you two!
