For sure Jim, it was a nice visit to this park and yes that was a gorgeous shot of Lisi !

Thanks for all of your videos. I grew up in St. Augustine and have commented on some of those videos. Again, thanks. I currently live about 3 blocks to the east of the playground at the start of this video. Very calm neighborhoods with small parks and playgrounds. Affordable. Very different vibe than on the east coast where I grew up. The best thing is the peace and calm but in an hour and a half I can be in St. Aug, Daytona, Orlando or Tampa. Hurricanes are also not much of a concern here. The only thing I miss is the salt water.

Glad you are enjoying them Terry! Its nice you can still be back home or just the beach in general in Ocala and the fact you don't have to worry much about hurricanes is a pretty big plus!

My wife and I, and the rest of my kids, I say rest of because one of my sons already lives in Boca Raton, are moving from Michigan, to West Palm, Florida, this Saturday 7-24- 2021. Everything you say in so many of your Florida videos, is how we feel, about the beautiful hot, and sunny, state of Florida.

I just watched and commented on the prt one of your Ocala video and was so glad to find prt two and see that you discovered Tuskawilla park, its one of the best things about downtown Ocala. Ocala has recently tried to connect Tuskawilla park to downtown via the enhanced pedestrian walkways and road bike paths from the very nearby town square using the old railroad right of ways square and that's nice. For the last year plus I have been employed by a non profit working with a city/county partnership that cleans up litter in all of the Ocala city parks - we pick up litter as well as empty all of the trash cans every day. We use a van that holds 10 people and cover about 10 to 15 parks every day in four hours. We do this with massive hustle so one thing I didn't like was the idea that Ocala only has Tuskawilla Park - that and the downtown square were the only parks you happened upon but they are not the only parks that we clean up all week long.

I'm glad I discovered it to Matty. That's pretty cool you guys clean up the parks. When I was looking on the map leaving the Square this was the only park nearby I could find. Obviously like you're saying there are more parks I just couldn't find them in the short period of time I was there. Plus it was getting dark so I had to choose one close by

I stayed at that exact Holiday Inn Express off I-75 like two nights ago!

Would love to see a hotel video! This park is lovely. Glad you and your model got to enjoy the peace and quiet of Ocala. We had to put our coastal California trip on hold. La is mandating everyone wear masks indoors again, and San Francisco followed L.A. and is “strongly Urging” everyone to wear masks indoors in that city. Decided to sit tight. Going to Disneyland on an overnight visit instead. Since it is located in Orange County, the LA mask mandate does not apply there…yet!

@@MichaelBordenaro The biggest new attraction in Ocala is the World Equestrian Center which opened last year. It is the largest equestrian center in the country and is right in the middle of horse country about 5 or 6 miles from the downtown area. People from all over the world bring their horses and compete in shows there. Also, one of the largest facilities in the country for selling horses is in Ocala and is called Ocala Breeder Sales. The downtown area is actually quite vibrant on Friday and Saturday nights.

I think that first mama “duck” was a goose, you silly goose (my mom used to call me a silly goose (when I warranted it) & she was from a small IL town - don’t know if it’s a small IL town thing, an older people thing, or just my silly goose mom’s thing.

Gotta love Ocala. Never seen a single bum in any of hundreds of videos.

Is the grass in the parks in Florida that you've been to full of fire ants or other insects that you may not want to lay down on? I like to do my stretching and exercise at the parks over here in IL (ohare area) and the grass is clear of all that. I remember in Alabama we would get bitten by ants and chiggers if we laid in the grass there.
