That is exactly what Jim and I did this weekend! We decided to go camping in the Ocala National Forest yesterday. Instead of going to a marked campsite or even a primative site, we decided to hike into the general forest and find a nice, quiet, secluded place to camp. We found the PERFECT spot. We happened upon a pristine old Florida landscape with an awesome view and lake/marsh! We spotted a black bear while setting up camp and ate dinner listening to the sounds of nature. I can't think of a better way to relax after the first week of the semester. Today, after packing up camp, we went to nearby Silver Glen Spring near Lake George. We cooled off in the clear 72 degree water before heading back to Gainesville for another busy week of classes. We hope to explore more of that area in the near future.
