    Thank you for this beautiful story!! As a native Floridian, living in various parts of Florida, but many years were in Tampa Bay, I have learned after living 16 years in Georgia, you can take the girl out of Florida, but you can never take the Florida out of the girl. This is the first time I felt "home" in watching this. Thanks so much

    Thank you, Mr. Rhodes for putting together such a wonderful historical piece on that particular area of Florida. I enjoyed all the stories of those who participated in telling their bit of history. Truly enjoyed it. I like it when life is simple and not busy with air pollution or noise pollution or horrendous traffic. I live in Miami, it is nothing like The Northern area of Florida. It has some farming and agriculture, but you really can't see it due to all the housing and construction that's taking over the quiet areas here.

    I'm from Pensacola. That's old Florida, it's the first city in America. Downtown Pensacola is beautiful, and the beach. We have The Navy and The Blue Angels. It has The French quarter, and Seville. The wrought iron balcony railings are so pretty. It's 5 flags over Pensacola, the French, the Spanish, the British, Florida and Confederacy flags.
    I grew up out in the country in a teeny tiny town named Beulah, almost at the Alabama border. We had swamp up the road behind us, farm across the road, lots of other farms, cattle, and heading south on Beulah road, opposite end of us, was getting towards Perdido River, where the water is brackish. We'd take our dirt bikes out there. Lots of places to fish out there too, the gators left you alone, but you'd better keep an eye out for rattlers and cotton mouths. We'd get boiled peanuts and sugar cane from the roadside vegetable stands. And watermelons too. And, pecans grew everywhere out there in Beulah. It was a great place to grow up.

    As long as you lose it as soon as you find it. 😂
    Old Florida will never be a captive.

    Old Florida is Otter Creek and Cedar Key.

    Part of the tree soon that water's gonna rise up to your property and then what would you do? You're not gonna stop the ocean from rising and I know you people don't believe in global warming😊😂❤
