    Totally enjoying your video right now. When you got to the GCS springs, I remembered being baptized in that 78 degree water. As a native born Floridian, that’s a bit cold and there won’t be a day I’ll forget how cold that was!

      That's a "cool" memory! I never thought about baptisms happening in the springs. That's interesting.

      to my recollection, many clay county church organizations in the area use it for that@@StingrayTomsFlorida

      I imagine - just never thought about it. Must be done at some of the other springs too.

    Please excuse my correction but A1A ends in Miami and from there you would be traveling on U.S 1 through the Florida Keys

      Thank you, but technically, A1A starts on Bertha St. in the midst of Key West and runs up the Roosevelt Highway until it meets US 1. There it "temporarily" ends until you reach Miami. There are a number of other breaks in the highway, including the one that requires the ferry in Mayport. I tend to ignore the breaks in the road because A1A is more of an attitude than just a highway. It's more about beach access while US 1 was the highway designed to move people quickly. Also, I'm not 100% sure, but I believe that the back cover of Jimmy Buffett's A1A album shows one of the route markers on Key West. By the way, this makes A1A the southernmost numbered highway in the continental US. Thanks!
