Just returned from Alachua County Fairgrounds, Gainesville, Florida. We went up for the weekend, leaving on Friday evening and returning only a couple hours ago. The weather was excellent; warm all day, and a nice breeze would come through during the evening, cooling off the night just right. We stayed at the fairgrounds since the local Amateur Radio Club (GARS) was having a Hamfest there, and while Laura and Emily did their thing around Gainesville, I checked out the gear at the Hamfest, and hung out at the trailer. More can be found on my Amateur Radio Page.
Some locals told us about a great pizza place in Gainesville, Satchel’s Pizza. If you’re ever in Gainesville and get a hankerin’ for some pizza, check this place out. Great food, neat atmosphere, great service, and the deserts are outstanding. Definitely worth a stop.
Sandy enjoyed the surroundings. She rarely gets the opportunity to run around without the chain on.
