Life in rural Florida
The crossroads near Middleburg, Florida is a surprising busy place. If you click on the Google link, you can see where I took this picture from. Normally it is full of vendors, selling things like boiled peanuts, fruit and lately jerky (made from “meat”). A week ago I took this picture while waiting for my wife so I could help her with her wheelchair and it just got me to thinking how I have changed since I moved out here almost seven years ago. Back then I would have thought I was already in BF nowhere, but for me now, this is the first signs that I am leaving my rural home as it is the first stop light that I hit after leaving my home almost 10 miles south of here. Because of a new law in my county this is most likely to be the line between city life and rural as Camp Blanding, now has veto rights to any new deveoplment that might cause light pollution and no more then one house per one acre. I am now proud of where I live. Yes no know knows where it is, and get lost trying to find it, but it is quiet, peaceful, and mine.
