DAY #65

First Christmas Eve I’ve spent in Florida, and aside from missing the family, I’m real OK with being here. I saw a cardinal outside the trailer window yesterday (briefly), so I know I’m not alone.

Started the day a little cool and cloudy, but it was full steam ahead, destination; Micanopy, FL. This is the small town I went through a couple of days ago. Its located about one hour east of the park, and its most recent claim to fame is being the backdrop for the movie, Doc Hollywood, starring Michael J. Fox. If you didn’t go off the main road, you’d miss it.

Some photos of the town.

Again with the angle, and I was aware of it this time.

Its the sum of the building that tells its history.

I’ve seen these guys on past trips to Venice, FL, but first one on this trip.

A couple of homes in town, just a slice of life in Micanopy, FL.

I guess I need to get my head on straight.

The ride back to the campground was as satisfying as the trip to Micanopy. As I got around Williston, the horse farms again began to appear. I noticed that more than a few were for sale.
