From October to May, you get the seasonal visitor traffic traveling from the south to north, end of month, and north to south first of month. One year we decided last minute to fly into Tampa on April 1, at 9pm. Traffic was bumper to bumper all the way to TV. We arrived at the house 1:15am.

Ocala always slows down no matter what time of day. Big joke is everyone must be going to Hobby Lobby
