Six of us spent much of day last Friday floating down the Ichetucknee River, one of the few pristene waterways on this planet.Thankfully, this pure and beautiful place is right “in our backyard.” “The Blue Path,”  an exhibit at The Florida Museum of Natural History, is about to open in Gainesville. This show will celebrate our magnificent springs and their importance to the people of the State of Florida. Be sure to check this out.

I have attached some photos of us as we floated, made art, and spent three hours contemplating our exquisite crystalline surroundings. At the end of our run (Yes, we did the entire trip!), we enjoyed our picnic lunches and had our usual review between rain showers that held off until 2 PM. What a beautiful day we had!

Look at my site for the image that I made and visit the page, “Notes and Journey Daybook pages to see the pages made by the other alumni participants.
