Florida excursions
- Spring: March 26 to April 4, 2018
- June: June 19 - 26, 2018
- Autumn: September 22 - October 6, 2018
- December: December 10 - 22, 2018
Note: In 2018, I made four trips to South Florida, primarily to see my mother.
On each trip I also availed myself to the bounteous outdoor and photo opportunities that Florida provides.
This leads to a dilemma about how to organize my page.
I often organize my trips into organisms and other topics.
In this page, there is also the opportunity to organize temporally, or by locale.
During the year, I visited the same parks, (eg Green Cay), on multiple occasions.
In addition, I encountered the same organisms in different places and times.
Therefore each of these schema is flawed,
but I have decided to focus on location with links to other thematic pages.
Unfortunately, as more photos were added, this organization broke down in places.
