GREEN VACATIONS

TODAY IS NATIONAL GET OUTDOORS DAY

Green Readers everywhere have been trying out the 100 mile diet--and variations thereof. What about a 100 mile vacation?

This morning I awoke to find the gas station by my house raised
gas prices ten cents (!) overnight. What does that mean for the family summer vacation? Here are 27 State parks within 100 miles of Tallahassee, and what can be greater than floating down the Ichetucknee
on a hot north Florida day?

Note: according to a recent USA Today survey, 28 states have at least one state park with wireless Internet. However, currently, Florida has none, so relax and unplug. . .
