sitting high in a tree,
eastern Blue Bird and a friend,
one scouting for bugs,
the other resting a moment,
before flying into combat











where are you going
little blue so determined
does your shadow know






We love to stop, for a few days, at Eastbank Campground as we travel east on I-10. Eastbank is a US Army Corps of Engineer Park located in Bainbridge, GA; however, the nearest town is Chattahoochee, Florida.
The park, with its heavily treed and hilly grounds with Lake Seminole as a back drop, is a picturesque and peaceful place.
One could sit for hours down by the lake and watch the hundreds of shorebirds feeding, or watch the forest birds hunting for bugs and berries, or just relax and marvel at the beauty of the setting sun.
We never know what the weather will be at Lake Seminole and this time, as we passed through, it was still winter. This place is so beautiful, no matter the weather, we still get out to enjoy hiking, birdwatching, photo taking and watching beautiful sunsets announce the end of joyful experiences.

Awoken with a start,
Thunder fills the sky
Its force is imposing,
Rain pounding on the roof
Light flashes, invading the darkness,
Mossy Pines present a haunting sight
The thunder remains close,
The rain unrelenting
Lightening continues to display its power,
Sleep is just a comforting thought
