Day 27, Friday, November 15, 2024, Falling Waters State Park, Chipley, FL, Day 2 - 0 Miles, 1,519.5 Miles for the Trip
A cool night. Around midnight it was down to 67°F in the trailer so I dug out the electric heater & plugged it into the receptacle connected to the thermostat set at 65°F. That keeps the head of the bed at 62°F. It came on a couple of times towards morning. It was 57°F outside when I went for my walk.
I didn't do much during the day. Some reading - finished Linwood Barclay's Take Your Breath Away and started Louise Penny's A World of Curiosities. Still listening to Edna Buchanan's Love Kills during my walks.
Since the park is named after Falling Waters, I headed for the waterfall. For a place as flat as Florida, it was OK, although I suspect it would be far more impressive if there was more water going over it. It is also interesting that the waterfall falls into a hole, not a lake or stream. There is a sign at the park entrance saying the water flow was low. In any case, a couple of photos:

Back at the trailer I did more reading, then headed in for dinner.
Dinner was a salad and the other half a better goods Mushroom & Truffle Pizza.
