Let's Explore Cradle Creek Preserve In Jacksonville Beach, Florida! Along the Intracoastal Waterway!

Stroll along with me as I walk through the breathtakingly beautiful Cradle Creek Preserve, located in Jacksonville Beach, Florida !! Nestled into the barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and next to the intracoastal waterway, is this quaint, little walking path that not many people know is even here! It’s small, and usually completely unpopulated with visitors! At many times of the day, you seemingly, or really, have the entire place to yourself. This allowed me much reflection time, and I quickly realized, while looking at all the natural beauty surrounding me, that I’ve come such a long, long way. Many years ago, I could only dream of walking this far, and today, I did it without even thinking twice. I only did this by taking action before I ever would have been ready. March Before You Feel Like It. And I did feel all of Florida surrounding me on this walk. Join me today for the sights, smells, and especially the SOUNDS of Real Florida.
It’s a hot one, and we do grab a Bahama Mama and Blimey Limey Smoothie at Tropical Smoothie Cafe - before heading over to the preserve. It’s the hottest of the hot Florida Summer right now, so please remember to get some air conditioning, and hydrate with cold drinks, if you are thinking of doing any outdoor activity in this heat.
Thanks for joining me today, and definitely give a Like and Subscribe for future Floridian Adventures.
Lots of love,
Christine ;)

Hey Y’all ! Welcome to Christine’s Floridian Dreams! I’m Christine Pieper - and these are my dreams. Join me as I vlog my adventures throughout the Sunshine State and the Deep South. I am forever in search of great food, and even greater fun. Come along as I try to find all the off-the-beaten-path dives… and everything on the paved roads too. Exploration, travel, hotels, restaurants, beaches, land and sea, and lots and lots of coffee - oh yeah - let’s not forget donuts, for goodness sake. But mostly, I’m just living my very best life - every single day - and I want you to as well. My goal is to lift you up - and get you off that couch. Pull those covers off and get out of your bed. Put that gosh dang phone down. Press pause on the DVR, and swipe out of your streaming services. Step outside. And get out there... into the fresh air - and let the wind mess up your hair, why don’t ya? I’m living my dreams after a decade of life in chronic pain… All I wanted was for that pain to go away - but now I live a new life, having learned to live WITH that chronic pain, and with the blessings of God, a lot of passion, pixie dust, and sugar thrown in for good measure. I hope to inspire you to get over yourself, show up for yourself, and get out of your own way. These are my dreams, and if you’ve got dreams, it’s up to you to make them come true, and no one else. The only one stopping you is - YOU!
