Gainesville is a sweet college town in the middle of Florida. (translation--middle of nowhere)
It is home to the University of Florida, where both of my boys attend college.
I love this town, as in any college town there is a lot of energy.

    Nice pages on Gainesville. I think it's one of the nicest cities in FL. also one of the best college towns in the country, easy to get around, and always something going on. Want to move down there someday and become a huge Gator fan.- Tony from WI.

    Mmmmm... I didn't know Gainesville had such good eateries. I guess a college town will do that to ya though. :-) (and I REALLY need to get you some more of my flower pictures!!!)
