Marjorie went down the river with Dessie about 75 years ago. At the end of the bike Odyssey, I went the river in a houseboat back to Palatka. When this picture was taken, I was wishing I had packed some Florida Backwoods Biscuits in my backpack. Instead I gobbled handout Musketeers. Riding through the country that she immortalized in her books, there were moments when I was tired to the core and then suddenly I would see something incredible....sandhill cranes or a tree filled with snowy egrets.
