@McIntosh

"McIntosh is in North Central Florida about 20 miles south of Gainesville and 6 miles from Micanopy.  The McIntosh Historic District includes dozens of historic homes and other buildings. The name of the town may come from an early planter named Col. John Houstoun McIntosh who owned a plantation in the area from the 1820s until it was destroyed by Seminole Indians during the Second Seminole War (1835-1842)." Along with Micanopy, McIntosh hosted the movie Doc Hollywood

After shooting the Depot, and looked over to what we learned was an artist's gallery - the 'Carriage House'. Not  knowing what it was (but soon learned) we walked on over and said 'Hello'. After some introductions and asking if it would be possible shoot inside - the artist - Willam Schaaf, invited us in and we talked for 45 minutes. A great opportunity to learn what he does and a little about the area.
