I 10 -301 route.
Just an opinion.

I'm at my house now, and followed these directions partially.
I went to Ormond Beach and took 40 west to 19 south to 42 west. Probably 30 to 40 miles longer than the trip down 301, but there were no towns, lights or traffic all the way across. It was a really pleasant ride and I will do it that way every time! Of course the miles south on 95 were all at a speed limit of 70, and the speed limit on the other roads was 55 to 60 most of the way with one stretch of 45. There were 3 lights on 40, the 3rd at the intersection of 19 where I made a left. The Ocala forest is a pretty ride.
Take 42 until 25, make a left. Take that a mile or 2 to Griffin Rd (huge sign) make a right and that feeds into Morse Blvd traffic circle above Spanish Springs.
