We moved to Ocala FL, last September 2020 and it’s taken time to think of it as home however now that I know where to go, it should be a great experience and fall in love with the City.

Lived in Williston when I was little. Family trips to Ocala were so much fun. Silver Springs, Rainbow River. Really miss those trips. Beautiful town.

I remember a lot living there and graduating from Vanguard High School in 97, but left in 2000 and it's had a lot added to it since and there's other things I never had a chance to see!

Quality video. Well done. I'm looking forward to seeing other places you have filmed. Next time you are in the area, please visit the new World Equestrian Center. I'm certain it will be added to your list.
