This is a pictures of me taken at Silver Springs State Park near Ocala in north central Florida.  I was born in Ocala, and I used to go here all the time as a kid.  However, back then it was a "theme" park with rides and exhibits.  A few years ago, the state bought it, and it is now a state park.  I'm sitting on a twisty-curvy trunk of a palm tree that has been there for as long as I remember. Ocala and the surrounding area is known for their spring-fed rivers.  If you are a nature lover, you should check it out.  They're simply beautiful!

Also... fun fact for Walking Dead fans.....I just read that several scenes for this season will be filmed in Ocala.
