His visits did not last long due to the pandemic, but he stayed safe and loaded up on supplies to stay out of stores. Since Seth lived in Florida, he started with a short trip. He went down to Ginnie Springs. It’s about 250 miles away from his home, so he made the drive down in one day and spent it this spring sleeping and eating in his car. Ginnie Springs is a camping area with a giant river that runs throughout the woods. Seth spent a couple of days there floating down the river and forgetting his worries about the future. Since there are springs attached to the rivers, there are some beautiful spots. Also, the water is frigid and refreshing. After a couple of days of relaxing, he took off.  

Starting in Florida, he went to a total of two different places.

During this pandemic, we have all been trapped at home. But a lucky few have found a way to stay safe but also still do what they love. This post will discuss how Seth Green, a student at Gulf Coast State College, spent his time. Seth, like everyone else, was sick and tired of sitting at home with nothing to do. He decided that if he was stuck in one place, why not be stuck in something that can move. That idea started his journey around the neighboring states.

From there, Seth left Florida and head over to Georga. Along the way, Seth came across a few horse farms and took his time riding in the countryside. Since he was alone, the farmers allowed him to ride for a bit. He kept away from the cities due to the population and just kept to Georgia’s southern parts. The time alone, Seth spent felt relaxing. While going to different farms, one of the farmers offered Seth a part-time job for a few days since the farmer’s other employees quit due to Covid. He agreed and spent a couple of days helping the farmer clean and feed the horses. Seth admitted that it was hard work but also very rewarding since he could help someone in need. After a few days passed, Seth said his goodbyes and hit the road once again.

Seth spent a total of two weeks driving around, visiting all the places that allowed him access before he headed home. from his trip to the springs to helping on a farm, this was one trip he wouldn’t forget. Now that Covid is in full force, this will be the one upside in this time of crisis.
