Cathy and I joined some other friends in Palm Coast at a benefit campout at the Florida Agricultural Museum. It was primitive camping, but they hope to make some improvements as they grow and improve the equestrian camping facilities. The Florida Agricultural Museum preserves the history of Florida agriculture and historical Cracker livestock.Cheryl, who is a volunteer with the FAM, did a great job organizing this first camping event. We had a pot luck dinner on Friday evening, then a great pulled pork Bar-B-Q dinner on Saturday evening with some Blue Grass music for entertainment.
Along with the trails around the FAM, we were able to cross the landbridge and enjoy all the trails along Pellicer Creek and Princess Place. We rode for about 4.5 hours on Saturday and then on Sunday morning we just played in the arena with all the poles, balls, jumps, etc. We had a ball ! (pun intended)
You can see all the rest of the pictures at the LINK.
I love these photos. It certainly looks like pleasant riding conditions. The museum sure looks interesting from the outside. And a European vacation - what a hoot!
