The feature image is the best veggie sandwich on the planet. Fresh Italian bread, cream cheese (instead of mayo), cucumbers, spring mix lettuce, carrots, cherry tomatoes and avocado. Add a little salt and pepper and viola! YUM YUM! We had a picnic after birding all morning at Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge in Folkston, Georgia.

We had to climb UP the tower at Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge in Folkston, Georgia to be able to look down at the swampy area in which the 3/4 mile Chesser Island boardwalk takes us.

By the time we had spent over an hour at the tower watching for birds and just enjoying the peace, they had opened up for a great photo op on the way back towards the parking area. This was spring in full bloom in April of this year.

This is the last time I saw my middle child, my oldest daughter before the lockdown. We went to Tampa to celebrate Christmas, only it was New Years. Thank goodness we have FaceTime or I’d not be very kind in my deliver on the way our leaders have handled this pandemic. Anyway, that is Alecia on the right and me on the left. Don’t we look kinda like sisters??? The correct answer would be YES! LOL!

This yellow wildflower was begging to be photographed in Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge in Folkston, Georgia along the Chesser Island boardwalk. It is a small wildflower that seemed kinda windblown but hanging tough!

The Chesser Island Boardwalk is 3/4 of mile long and dead-ends at the 4 story tower.

This photo was my veggie sandwich made with cream cheese, avocado, carrot, cucumber, spring lettuce and sprouts layered between soft sliced Italian bread. Yum Yum!

Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge remained open and we made several visits over several weeks which kept us sane (at least a little bit).
