DMV: Rainbow Springs - Real Life Mermaid - Getting Kicked Out of Spots - Whitlacoochie State Forest

In this video, I meet up with some locals in Crystal River, Florida for a swim in the gorgeous Rainbow Springs, in which we encounter an actual mermaid. Later, I head back to my spot in the woods, where some unsavory characters stumble upon my camp. I seek refuge in the Whitlacoochie State Forest, where I encounter yet another unexpected visitor.

    I quit smoking in 2000, cold turkey 🦃, I went into the store and spent my last 2.43 on a pac. My daughter said well can I get something? I got my money back and she got a Mr. Pibb and a honeybun. Never smoked again. Good luck.

    I quit smoking in 1974-75. Cigarettes had gone from 35¢ a pack to 50¢ a pack. Outrageous!😮 I had started college and PE 101 was "Thou Shalt Run". Run in the soft white sugar sand. The first day we had to run half a mile, get a token, run a half a mile back. Thought I was going to die. I started smoking little cigarillos. Tijuana Smalls andWiffs. Nicotine patches and lozenges were not a thing back then. Went from the cigarillos to a pipe. Actually just found an exact replacement for my old Swiss hunting pipe that I wound up with, it disappeared in a divorce. I still haven't loaded it up and smoked out of it yet. I don't miss the smoking, but I'll probably smoke the pipe occasionally. To keep skeeters away while camping, ya know? Hang in there Joe, it's got to be easier with the patches. Ride Safe👋

    I ride my dirt bike in withlacoochee a lot, I'm not surprised you got kicked out, you probably would have got away with it if you were deeper in the back woods. Its a good thing you stayed out of richloam, its a swamp with water crossings, knobby tires are pretty much necessary

    Seven weeks in one spot with no issues is remarkable. Probably someone saw you camped in the State Area and reported it. I've found that State areas are the most difficult to wild camp. Even when legal some in the DNR harass people.
