5 years ago that was true. Everyone came down I-75 but in the last
boom people figured out how to get across from I-95 without getting
arrested in Waldo and we are seeing a lot of east coast tags now.



Ahhh, Waldo...speed trap center of America. We used to shoot across from
St. Augustine to Green Cove Springs to Starke and then creep south
through Waldo on the way to Gainesville, where seeeester-in-law went to
college. I recall Waldo also had a bunch of crummy antique shops and a
huge outdoor market. Not much else.
