When I arrived at Tarkiln Bayou the rain had let up just long enough to enjoy a leisurely stroll down their great boardwalk. I was very excited about the boardwalk because the park was lovely but walking in the woods might have scared me. The walk leading to the bayou was wonderful and easy. The plants were so beautiful and I enjoyed every step the the end of the walkway. I stopped and admired the bayou for a few moments until the rain started up again. I turned around and headed back to the car a lot fast then my walk to the bayou.
