Endangered Animal Rescue Sanctuary

Rt 318 Eastbound Near Citra, Florida

This narrow 2-lane road roams through the countryside of central Florida, passing by one large horse farm after another. The view as seen in this video is typical of northern Florida. Look closely at the trees as we pass under them for the typical hangling clumps of spanish moss ( which isn't the actul term).

Starting at about 4:27 into the video we pass an area on the right which is grounds of the University of Florida Agricultural Research Center- whatever that means.

My favorite part of this ride begins at about 4:55, where the road passes under a canopy of large trees on both sides of the road.

This video was shot in late April, '09, and the vegetation is as green as Ohio looks in June. The video starts close to the intersection of 318 & I-75 at exit 368. The closest large town is Ocala, about 10 miles to the south.
