a place from the past
that will always
bring back memories
of picnics and swimming
in the Withlacoochee River.
...
to be honest ,
as a child I never knew
the name of the river..
we simply said we
were going to blue springs.
..
Everyone knew the
Blue Springs Road
( State Road 6 )
and the turn off for the
spring was the third little
'bridge' at the
Madison / Hamilton County line
..
But those were simpler times..
long before the State Park system
began managing the area.
Blue Springs
flowing into the Withlacoochee
