weekend trip

[gsi07816]

This has been a very enjoyable vacation. We've been very fortunate to have good dives and nothing but good experiences with our meals. We spent last night and the night before in the Days Inn in Ocala that's just off I-75. As part of the price for the hotel, we were each given breakfast coupons to the Huckleberry Finn Restaurant a few hundred yards

Wow, that sounds so nice. If you have some free time while up there, visit Silver River State Park. Jason and I camped there in February and had an awesome time. Their museum/visitor's center is first rate.

Everytime I am in Ocala I gawk at all the million dollar horse farms. I cracked up one day when I saw that the Hilton up there has a barn to keep your horses while you stay.

In Lakeland the restaurant is called Hooked on Harry's (but everyone just calls it Harry's). We've been twice when I received gift cards to the place. While I'm not big New Orleans style food, you are right, they are excellent! I usually get smashed on their drinks before my meal arrives, and we always save room for dessert.

The horse farms were quite a site to see. I had forgotten how popular horses are in this part of Florida. We didn't have time to visit Silver River State Park, even though I'm pretty sure we drove past it at some point this weekend. One thing's for certain, my opinion of Ocala has definitely improved on this trip.
