Memorial bench

This bench, located at the Preserve of Spruce Creek golf course, was established as a memorial to a Jim Reed, born December 13, 1938 and died July 4, 2003. I would assume that Mr. Reed was an avid golfer and supporter of the Preserve of Spruce Creek golf course.

Roped!

I think maybe one of our local cowboys had a few too many margaritas and thought this was a long, tall horse.

Horse Fever horse - hiding in plain sight

This is one of the newer Horse Fever horses and is located in downtown Ocala, next to the Marion Theater.  I've not been able to find out exactly how many of these beautifully painted horses are gracing the Ocala community, but it must be close to 100 by this time.

Equine DDS

It is only appropriate that in the "Horse Capitol of the World" we have persons trained in equine dentistry. I wouldn't want to pull a tooth from the mouth of a thoroughbred race horse!

Smart Car leads the pack...

...at AutoMax, but it appears to be going nowhere.  The wee Smart Car has been sitting there for some time.  Evidently, nobody wants to buy it.  And it's so cute, too!

Kayaks for sale

We can tell spring is upon us when the local sporting goods stores put their kayaks outside in front of the store.  These kayaks were proudly displayed at Dick's Sporting Goods.  We decided that because they float on the water, a watercolor effect would be appropriate.

Up the creek with a paddle

I thought surely this guy was going to fall in and get eaten by an alligator.  But he managed to stay upright and in the canoe until they got to the ramp.  :)  Notice it's the girls who are doing all the work.

Ocala's Korean Baptist Church

It is my understanding that there are over 200 Baptist churches in the Ocala area.  This is one of those churches, the Korean Baptist Church.
