Yet Another Florida Coast to Coast Adventure

Join Kevin and I for an adventure-filled journey across Florida from St. Augustine to Steinhatchee and all of the amazingly beautiful points in between. Seeking out backroads of gravel, sand and even bricks (!), we thoroughly enjoyed this ride and hope you enjoy watching it.
