About

Grabbing another image for the galleries!Greetings, and welcome to my blog! I’m Sandra Friend,  the author of more than 24 books on outdoors, nature, and travel subjects, with most of them covering my home state of Florida. I’m an award-winning member of the Society of American Travel Writers, the American Society of Journalists and Authors, and the Florida Outdoor Writers Association. As I do road trips across Florida, I’m highlighting my finds here to share what the Sunshine State has to offer.

I also provide more tips and destinations from my travels at:
