February 9, 2009 Ocala,Kathy, Silver Springs campground

We left Orange Grove Camping Resort fairly late this morning- as usual. The plan is to take a leisurely ride toward Ocala. I promised my cousin Kathy we would stop to see her. She has been living out here for the past year and is looking forward to seeing family.IMG_2981IMG_2979IMG_2978

We drove through Mount Dora a small town that has been touted as the place to see. Needless to say it is very small and as usual a tourist trap.

We arrived in Ocala around 3 PM and were able to make contact with Kathy. She met us at the local Walmart. We didn’t even recognize her, she looks great and is very happy. Both Ron and I are so happy she ‘s gotten a new chance at a good life. Kathy was so happy to see us and we promised to keep in touch. She works two jobs one being a Nanny to two adorable little girls that she brought with her to meet us. Both girls seem to adore her.

After our visit we decided to spend the night at the Silver Springs campground across the street from Walmart. That Walmart was a little scary so we opted for the safety of a campground.
