After several days of rain in late December, we had a break in the weather so I decided to go to the Hillsborough River State Park for a walk. The water was coming through pretty heavy and this is the only place in the Tampa bay area to see “rapids”. Not too bad considering the area is almost completely flat.

Fall was just starting to hit. The cypress trees had all turned colors and were starting to lose their leaves.

The trees along the trail have a lot of personality.

The bridge over the river. Down at this end the river is calm.

Colors on the ground.
