- John Chestnut Sr. Park of Pinellas County Florida is the perfect place to practice social distancing from humans but not with animals. Encountering deer and alligator is common. Journey with me as we take the best nature hike I’ve ever taken. There are lots of cute critters in this one. Thank you for watching. There is much ahead.

Beautiful!!
So beautiful and to hear the birds singing, actually doing us good seeing all this nature its gorgeous 😍😍😍
It’s a beautiful place
If there is a place where I can find serenity right now, it's in your videos 🙏🏾💖
Thank you for watching my friend :)
😎 good to get outside and enjoy nature in these tuff times
What's up Kreeper?
Glad to take a hike with ya j
So peaceful❤
Thanks for the tour!
Beautiful park and another great video Jay, stay safe and have a great weekend my friend.
Thank you buddy :)
What beautiful park and place to spend a day. So much more to see then just the beaches. Thank you Jay.
It’s one of my favorite local parks thank you Harry
Another quality video!
Thank you my friend
Thanks for posting. I am always surprised when you our your buddy over at the Tourist trap post something like this from Pinellas as most of us who grew up in places like Temple Terrace always thought that Pinellas was built out back in the '70s and '80s (except for Fort DeSoto and Honeymoon Island) as most instantly think of the sprawl on US 19, the traffic jams on the way to a Rays game, or the traffic on the way to Clearwater Beach but North Pinellas is different. Very beautiful. The boardwalk and the tower remind me of one my favorite spots: Lettuce Lake up on Fletcher Ave to the East of USF on the Hillsborough River. I made it out there yesterday but I heard from a friend that the county is closing all conservation parks after today but the county website said most of the nature preserves in county will stay open though they do not have all the amenites like boardwalks or nature centers.
Anyhow Jay, again, thank you so much for such a great video. It was almost like being out in the park in person! Vlogs like this help make be bunkered down at home much more tolerable. Thanks again and stay safe!
You’re so welcome buddy. Hillsboro has some beautiful parks I plan on visiting all the Conservation ones just like this.. eventually. :) Thank you so much for watching hope you’re having a great weekend
This was just about the most soothing, and peaceful video I have ever seen! Really enjoyed it- didn't want it to end. Thank you so much!! Please keep them coming. We really don't have scenes like this up here in New York where I'm from. Thanks Tampa Jay.
Thank you so much my friend I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed it. I can’t wait to get back out in another park! Hope you’re staying safe up there thank you so much for watching
Nature 😊
Was just there this morning taking a walk. My favorite park in all of Tampa Bay, and there are tons to choose from.
This is another beautiful park I had missed when I livedin Tampa although going to state parks in the Tampa was a favorite activity on weekends.
Thank you for this treasure. I've already sent it to a list of friends & family 1200 miles from there!
Karen thanks so much for sharing and for watching . It means so much for me. The parks are the places to be :)

Karen Braxton thank you so much Karen. I appreciate you sharing :)
Excellent Video as always! Beautiful Nature Shots! Love the Large Live Oak and all the Spanish Moss! Lake Tarpon Always looks nice too!!! :)
Thanks buddy there’s some beautiful scenery out there
Thanks Tampa Jay. I really enjoyed this nature walk while walking on my treadmill here in New Jersey. I'll rewatch it again daily on my 'walks'. It's a very relaxing and needed break from the stressful times. Thanks.
Thank you so much for watching Marie :)
TJ - you rock! Love the outdoors man! :-D Your vids show that it's still great to be alive on this beautiful planet ....
Thank you buddy you rock!
Greetings from Costa Rica.. lookig forward to visiting this places in Fl
What a nice a relaxing park Jay! Watch out for them gators! lol
Great job shooting this video. You gave me some good ideas how I might shoot some footage.
My greetings good friend, you managed to create a beautiful documentary.
GREAT video thank you
Thank you Conita :)
Beautiful place! Loved this video! This is something we all need right now. Thanks so much for the video, and watch those gators, that one scared me!
Thank you Donna
Another great video! I didnt realize lake Tarpon was so close to clearwater. Im going in May definitely making a stop here! Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you Rachel :-) yes it’s only a hop skip and a jump. That’s a beautiful park one of my favorites not too far from where I live even
A beautiful place Jay. Thank you for the tour. 🙂👍
Thank you buddy
Very nice park. Lake Tarpon is a pretty large lake. In 1969 my family had a 22 foot Islander and we mostly used it in the gulf (we had it stored in Ozona), but once took it to Lake Tarpon. Thank you for sharing the park, and as always, the real Florida.
Thank you Tish. I always enjoy this park so much. It’s so pretty out there
Wow, Jay, you remind us of life was like before we were told to shelter in place. You are lucky to be able to find uncrowded “safe” spots. Stay safe, buddy. You and Adam are giving us our Florida “ fix”! !
Thank you Connie :)
So beautiful there!
Thanks for watching my friend
@@TampaJay your welcome! We have a good time making outdoor videos also
Cool video! Makes me feel like moving to Tampa! 😉
Thanks bub, beautiful footage.
Thanks man
Looks like a great place. I need to check this place out when I'm in the area. Nice video 👍
Thank you Thomas
fajnie tam jest.
This is my favorite park, it used to call Brooker Creek. Alot of good times there, my sons 2nd birthday, days with my girlfriend whom I married 30 years ago. Thanks Jay for posting this.
That’s awesome man I’m glad you found the video good to bring back some memories. Thanks for watching
Now,Its time to head back to the car and...SQUIRREL!!! Wow! Its like that Deer knew you. This was great Tampa, have you thought about doing a live stream? That would be great too!
Thank you my friend yes I need to do a live stream soon
What a beautiful place! Nothing like a nature walk to brighten the day! I can see why you like this park. Fantastic job capturing the feeling of this place. Really gives you an idea of what it’s like to stroll along the boardwalk. Sunsets with Jay was the first video/livestream I watched of yours. Looks like the park has some really magic areas where you can relax and enjoy the scenery. Thanks Jay for exploring this amazing place and sharing it with us. :) Looking forward to your next video!
TuesdayAfternoon thank you Tuesday
Tampa Jay - Hope all is well with you and Bella. 🐾
I will be visiting when I come down
thanks TJ !!! and i'm with you... MAN did I want to be out on that boat ! :-)
That was a nice boat lol thanks buddy
When i saw that pontoon boat i knew exactly what you were going to say 😂
Hahah that looked like a nice boat
nice boardwalk sir
i haven't been there in years.....i need to get up there !
FloridaGreg it’s beautiful man hope you make it out there soon
Do the alligators ever go for people's dogs id be terrified having a dog there. Thankyou so pretty lovely light relief from all the scaremongering going on. Nice feeling now ive watched this. 👍🙏❤
Yes they do sometimes as well as some vulnerable people. Just have to be cautious and pay attention around water there.
That deer seemed awfully tame with you Tampa. 👍
I felt like I could walk right up to it :)
Hello 🙋♀️😘
I am on my way
"here's a boat...................."
I didn't know about the boardwalk.
Is lake Tarpon bigger or smaller than lake Okechobee??
It’s way smaller but still a big lake . Thanks for watching
Lovely park, weird that dogs not allowed. Is that common in Florida parks?
There’s just no dogs are on the boardwalk I think because it’s fairly new and it’s next to the lake.. but there is actually a dog park inside the park. I failed to mentioned that LOL
