Tampa, FL (USA)
Had to drive down to Tampa to get my homestead exemption paperwork completed today. Nicky and I left in the early morning and had a good drive on I-95 and I-4 all the way (gas in Daytona). Arrived in the early afternoon and got all business completed rather quickly. Seemed like an interesting place - and would have liked to stay - but had to be back for work tomorrow. Decided to take the scenic way home. Used I-75 all the way to Gainesville. Then on FL-331 and FL-24. Found the little town of Waldo - the one that isn't even on US-301 but gives huge tickets for tourists that travel through their speed-zone. In the neighboring town, there was even a huge billboard warning people to slow down! We read about this place somewhere (AAA book, I think). Didn't get a ticket, but saw a cop... After that, smooth sailing to I-10 and home.
