Just wanted to share ....

Come visit Ocala, FL in Marion County, Florida. There are over 900 horse farms in the county. Bring lots of carrots. Marion's got more horsies than you got showgirls. Lots of two-lane twisties if you got the X, and plenty of barn kitties to sleep on the hood. And the gendarmes go easy on the ladies I hear.

OH now that sounds like a plan!!! Horses, farms, the ocean (I miss so much), & kitties to sleep on my X ... much better than the desert these days - I am so over LV right now ... need a vaca soon

You could do St. Augustine Beach and Ocala at one go, but fall or spring is better. It's starting to get HOT here and we really need rain. Late March through April is the time to do Ocala. Funny...we were thinking about doing a Vegas getaway.
