Yesterday we toured the nearby town of High Springs; it is a typical small central Florida town. On Main Street we found an old hardware store that still sold bulk nails by the pound. I haven’t seen that in a while.
By a river landing near the campground we saw a small pontoon boat with the whole deck framed by a screen house. If the mosquitoes’ are that bad here in the summer, I don’t think I would want to be boating around here.
Saturday Jan 26 2013. It’s shaping up to be another beautiful day in sunny Florida. As pleasant as Myrtle Beach is in the winter, I still enjoy migrating south where it is really warm. Maybe it’s just mental, but I have ZERO tolerance for cold weather.
This morning we walked one of the longer trails thru the forest here in the park, I estimate we walked about six miles. In the afternoon we drove to Gainesville to do a little light shopping. While in the city we drove thru the University of Florida Campus. It is very impressive, the tax payers of Florida should be proud.
Tomorrow we move to the huge (800+ RV sites) Thousand Trails Campground near Orlando for a 14 day stay.
