Went to Rainbow Springs State Park today. Beautiful park with crystal clear spring water. Swimming, canoeing, kayaking available. Large picnic area and very clean restrooms. Nice trails to meander through the park. They are currently repairing the waterfalls which must be lovely when they are running. The visitors center is also currently under repair (had a small fire 5 weeks ago). So, if you go, bring water/something to drink and lunch.
Very easy to get to...44 West to 41 North. Took about one hour to get there. Also found a very nice Italian restaurant to have an early dinner on the way home. Called Little Joey's Pizzeria Restaurant in Holder on the corner of 41 and N. Lecanto Highway (About 10 minutes from the state park). On Wednesdays they have a 16" pizza for only $6.99...and it was delicious!!!
All around a great day!!
