This is the kind of place I love to explore. The fence and shelters are very interesting, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
The Spanish moss hanging down from the trees is so pretty.
Can't wait to see what is behind the rustic timber fence.

Thanks for telling us about this park -- I had not heard of it before. It looks like the type of place I would like to visit, and I look forward to your pictures of what's on the other side of the fence.
A nice place to visit.. I enjoy reading about old Florida and its history, thanks Sandra.

I like that moss, too...it looks like a double walled fence!
What interesting construction. Do you know if there's a purpose for the tw-sided fencing, other than strength? I taught school in Clearwater for one year and enjoyed "ratting around" Tampa.
So unusual! Looking forward to behind the fence!
I like the fence, it is so rustic
what a cool fence. From what you showed here I can't wait to see what's behind it
Thank you for the information. Happy weekend!
