Marion County is where the horses are. There are some backroads that are loaded with horse farms. Oh, I see Janette answered. Thanks, Janette! And Carol!

We have some of the hottest temperatures in the state, and some of the coldest! UF and Gator Country are just up the road. Lots to see and do...you could get info from the Chamber of Commerce. Ocala and Bellview both have good quilting guilds. You can be as busy or as relaxed as you want.

Get off I-75 and head W on #200 and that is full of places. I am sure if you checked with C of C or horse farms in Ocala FL you would get lots of information. No snow here, lots of grass (FL actually has more cows than TX as grass grows so well here ) and Ocala doesn't have the sandy soil we do here in Citrus (Next Co West of Marion). We are only 4-6 miles from Gulf so more sandy soil, we have sugar sand until you dig down 8-12 inches.


Your the 2nd person to say this in my presence, and it's just not true. Texas is the #1 as far as number of cattle. Florida is #16. Sorry. Can you tell I'm from Texas?
