tufftom4 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I did not go on the M/C even after rushing to get the parts for it, the weather was to nasty so I took the truck with my 4 legged kids to Alexander Springs ( Ocala National Forest) I bought an old Sears canvas tent from an estate sale years ago for 10$ and never set it up till this week, all the parts were there but took a while to figure out, it was waterproof with all the rain we had. This was my first trip there and it was nice, the water was crystal clear but cold, I will go back again.

tufftom4 Posted September 30, 2010 Author Posted September 30, 2010 They took a 9ft one out the day before I got there otherwise I would have taken it out myself...lol
BigBear Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 TuffTom4; Are the campsites in Ocala Forest primitive? The wife and I are looking to start camping again, but we like the creature comforts (hot showers...maybe electricity) We've ridden through the Ocala Forest...but never camped there. It's about a 3-4 hour ride for an overnighter...so it's something we are really considering in the next several weeks. Thanks! BigBear
Capt-D Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 After talking to you was wondering whose kids you had, had to laugh when I realized it was your dogs. Nice thing about that is you don't have to keep them entertained.
tufftom4 Posted October 1, 2010 Author Posted October 1, 2010 There are several campgrounds in Ocala here is the link and if you click on a campground it will tell you what the have and then click on the photo's multimedia section on the right hand side and it will show pics of it. The campground I went to had showers and running water at certain places in the park it also had a little store that sold snacks and soda and they sold ice and firewood but when I woke the first morning and forgot to pack the eggs I had to drive 7 miles to the nearest country store. http://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/!ut/p/c4/04_SB8K8xLLM9MSSzPy8xBz9CP0os3gDfxMDT8MwRydLA1cj72BTSw8jAwjQL8h2VAQAng7kaQ!!/?ss=110816&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&cid=FSE_003705&navid=110130000000000&pnavid=110000000000000&position=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&recid=32295&actid=29&ttype=activity&pname=Ocala%2520National%2520Forest%2520-%2520Campground%2520Camping
