Valerie, I'm so glad to get this update on Cypress Gardens! I have only been there once, when I was a little girl, but I remember watching those skiers and how fascinated I was that they could do what they did. Wonder if they will still have those water shows? It looks like they plan to do lots of rides too, and I don't think they had those 100 years ago when I was there.

Is there still a Silver Springs in Ocala? I remember those glass bottomed boats and the HUGE catfish you could see on the bottom. It was fun for a kid like me!
