Stephen Foster & 4th of July

We spent 3 days at Lee's Country Campground and really enjoyed it there. The owners are a very nice couple and really keep this park clean and relaxing. But now we have returned to Stephen Foster Folk Cutural Center State Park which we just adore. The sad thing is that it has been so dry up in this part of Florida that the Swannee River is very low and I don't think you could even boat in it. We have had some rain but no where near enough! It is ashamed that so many areas around our country either have too much water while others do not have enough. I was concerned that all the birds that were coming to my feeders would not come back but as soon as we put it up they were back. Also finally one little lone hummingbird has shown up. This morning when I got up there were several birds and a couple of rabbits outside. I just love nature and wildlife!

On the first Saturday of each month here at Stephen Foster there is a night when people come from all around to share their wonderful talents at the Nellie Bly Kitchen. You have everything from Barbershop Quartets to Old fashion story tellers. It is really an enjoyable evening with a lot of very talented local people. It is something you shouldn't miss if given the opportunity. Sorry I forgot my camera so no pictures.

I wish you all a very safe & fun 4th of July weekend. Keep safe as you celebrate our country's independence... and enjoy your families ♥
