The park road down to Flamingo continues to remain closed. They are working on getting it opened as soon as they can. Hopefully sooner than later! I continue to make the run from the Upper Keys over to Flamingo, crossing Florida Bay . It is a very scenic ride if you have never done it…
It has been a tough couple of weeks for almost everybody in Florida with Hurricane Irma. My heart definitely goes out to people in the islands, lower keys, and SW coast of Florida as they got hit the hardest. I know they will bounce back stronger than ever.
