December 2nd: Day 29

Chiefland to Ocala
50 miles: 5 hours 16 minutes riding

It was warm today! It was so nice to ride in shorts and tshirts!!

The ride today took us through horse country. There was miles of pastureland, signs for all of the different "horse farms", areas for show and jumping - but in all of that we only saw 10-20 horses. I'm guessing they are all too expensive to be out to pasture. There were lots of for sale signs - it looks like the real estate market hit this area hard. There was one that listed all of its qualities including an equine swimming pool!

The first 20 miles or so were flat (just like its been). All of a sudden just outside of one of the towns we started having rolling hills. I still don't love them but they are becoming easier as I get more in shape!
