February 23, 2022 – Alderman Ford’s Park – Florida

Today Wilma, Gus, and our friend Kathy adventured to Alderman Ford’s Park in Lithia, Florida. The Park is especially popular for use of the almost two-mile loop trail, which attracts walkers, and bicyclists. The trail contains boardwalks and bridges and is lined by oak, cypress, and palm trees. The Park is also popular for fishing, kayaking, picnicking, and has remote camp sites.

We had a wonderful adventure to Alderman Ford’s Park. I was so excited to be reunited with my friend Kathy, and for her to meet the pups. She stopped by our AIRBNB before we headed to the park for our walk. Upon arrival to the park, we followed the paved trail, taking time to sit, chat, and give the pups a water break along the route. Some parts of the trail were a bit bland while others were absolutely spectacular. I loved the boardwalk trail going over the river, so modern and unique (see a quick video below). The landscape was great, lots of tropical foliage. However the best part of this walk was the wonderful company, and that Wilma and Gus could meet one of my friends who resides in Florida. Kathy was nice to let me use some of the amazing photographs she took in our blog today –  Check out her business on Facebook – Little Violet Photography- by Kathy Hostetler. Definitely a memorable day at Alderman Ford’s Park (Rating: 4).
