Live Oak - town and Train Depot

They say that that the more north you go in Florida, the more South you are. This certainly applies to the town of Live Oak. Just west of the intersection of I-75 and I-10, Live Oak is shaded by the canopies of ancient oaks, dripping with Spanish moss. The town's pace mimics the Suwannee and Santa Fe rivers that bound it. The Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park may best embody Live Oak’s assets, offering canoeing and hiking in the wilderness. Source: Live Oak

The Graffiti Bridge
Earlier this year, I learned of a location between Live Oak and Ellavile where there was an abandoned bridge that trailblazers for abandoned structures had found. We tried to locate it when in the Panhandle, thought we did but were redirected by surveyors who believed the bridge we were looking for was removed. Not convinced we continued a web search and learned we were indeed at the correct location. So, with a passion to close this 'treasure hunt', Ginger I again passed through the area and did locate the graffiti bridge over the Suwannee River.  Got it!

Today, the story was validated, we were ate the correct bridge, it is called the bridge to nowhere and indeed it is a favorite location for Florida history buffs and artists. Below are photos (first series of 3) we captured and those following I downloaded and post from this story Only in Your State. Review that article, interesting history.
