I'm a freelance writer and videographer, and spend most of my days exploring Florida's natural wonders from a kayak, a bike or rambling down a hiking trail. A Florida native living in Citrus County, you'll often find me watching the boats go by on the Homosassa River. I'm always sharing stories, photos and videos, so follow along and together we'll discover Florida's natural treasures.

Like the outdoors? Like geocaching? Then you will absolutely love Polk County's Trek Ten Trails program!
Currently in its second year, the Trek Ten Trails program officially began back in November, but there's still plenty of time to take part in this fantastic event that's perfect for a family outing or a solo adventure.
1. Get Your Card
The first thing you'll need to do is pick up a validation card from any place that is part of the Polk County Library cooperative - click here for a list of locations. You can also download an official validation card here. After you have your validation card, choose 10 of the 15 featured trails that you would like to complete.
2. Now comes the fun part - it's time to go geocaching!
Once you've located a geocache, you'll find a validation stamp inside. Stamp your card and continue on until you've located at least ten of trails.
3. Mail in Your Card
Mail in your card by October 5, 2009, and receive a certificate of completion. Oh, you'll also be eligible to win some cool prizes as well!
The 2009 Trek Ten Again Grand Finale Celebration is set for October 31, 2009, so make plans to attend.

See you on the trail!
