Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Falling Waters State Park, Chipley, Florida

A concrete path pleasantly declines through the tall pines toward a boardwalk that branches into two trails. Choosing the left trail, allows visitors to view several large sinkholes. A sinkhole occurs when the roof of a cavern collapses. The opposing right trail leads to Florida's highest waterfall. Named, Falling Water Sink, the fall plummets 73-feet into a sinkhole, which has an unknown final destination.
