Armadillo

I came across this armadillo searching for food in the grass along the Cross Seminole Trail in the Spring Hammock Preserve while going for a bike ride. Armadillos are very weird products of evolution with their furry feet and leathery shells...

Cross Seminole Trail Pedestrian Bridge (Over 17-92)

The Cross Seminole Trail will eventually travel from Sanford to Oviedo (and possibly beyond). On one of the newer sections of the trail, where it crosses 17-92 in the Spring Hammock Preserve, a very curvy pedestrian bridge was constructed. These pictures are from a recent trip that I took across the bridge.











This video starts in Big Tree Park and ends at Soldiers Creek Park. It was taken while parts of the trail were still unpaved, but the bridge was completed.

Railroad Relic?

While biking on the Seminole Wekiva Trail and the Cross Seminole Trail through the Central Florida Area, I've been noticing several strange concrete markers with numbers on them. The marker pictured is located along the Seminole Wekiva Trail in Lake Mary. I find markers like this a bit intriguing, leaving me wondering what exactly they are marking. My guess is that they have something to do with the railroads that used to run along the sections of trail where the markers can be found.

Does anyone have any information about these, whether my railroad hunch is right, and what do the numbers mean?

Curvy Pedestrian Bridge

A new pedestrian bridge for a new leg of the Cross Seminole Trail has gone up over 17-92 in Longwood, Florida. It's very curvy...
