Horse Farms to Salt Marshes

Horses like this one can be seen all over Ocala.

We got up early this morning and traveled North from horse farm country of Ocala Florida to the Golden Isles of south east Georgia.  Tonight we are at Blythe Island Regional Park in Brunswick, Georgia. 

A hand crank boat motor!

All three days in Silver Springs R&N went to the pool.  The pool wasn’t heated, but the temps were pretty high and the cold water felt good to them.  Yesterday was a little cooler, so they tried out the hot tub.  On Saturday they went to the Flea Market south of town.  There was an oil pull engine show going on—so they got to see some old engines and other interesting things.

Drag racers

Yesterday was another hot day and the humans decided to go site-seeing.  They ended up at Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing.  According to Ron, they saw lots of neat drag cars. (I’m not sure--I think they look scary and loud!)
Today, Monday, we got on the road early and made it to Brunswick in time to drive around a little after the camper was set up.  


9oo year old live oak.  According to legend, Indian braves would meet their maidens under this tree.

Brunswick is one of the shrimp capitols of the world.
