Here are a few photos of some of the animals I photographed while I was overlanding the last two weeks to Key West and back home to Maasachusetts. These images were taken with a real camera so it took some time when I got back to download and edit the images. Enjoy!

This is where I ended up about 12:30 last night...Osceola National Forest in Florida about a mile south of the Georgia border. Took me a couple of trails to find something I was comfortable driving deeper into the Swamp on  cuz my Jeep is all stock with no winch. Swamp mud is a lot thicker than  mountain mud and not as forgiving! :) I never drove in a swap before but I think I got some incredible shots this morning which I will try to do put on my blog tonight if I have Internet. Also did some video which I hope to get something edited from the last few days footage and post on my YouTube. Making my way down to the Everglades today and then to Key West tomorrow. Can’t wait to take the top down and get some sun. It was 42 degrees this morning and a bit colder last night.

Arrived in Everglades late last night and got up early this morning and found some backcountry trails that weren’t even on the regular maps but were on the satellite map that luckily I download a few weeks ago. Beautiful and remote!! There were barely trails in some spots. I had no business being on them in a stock my stock Jeep but you know me. Saw some gators this morning and a whole lots of birds. Got the top down and I’m on my way to the keys.
