After 32 years, Jacksonville fast-food restaurant abruptly closes

Open 32 years, one of Hardee's oldest restaurants in Jacksonville closed abruptly — leaving a farewell sign thanking ccustomers taped to the front door. The fast-food restaurant shut its door Monday, Nov. 2, at 11191 San Jose Blvd. in Mandarin. Although its restaurant's monument sign was empty and lights turned off inside the following day, several cars with customers hungry for breakfast pulled in to the parking lot the next day only to leave disappointed. The closure sign on the front door thanked would-be diners for being a valued Hardee's customer. "We sincerely appreciate your business and support over the years, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause," the sign read.

Between Tampa And Gainesville Is An Archaeological Park With Native American History, Fishing, And Trails

Florida's Gulf Coast is a prime, year-round vacation escape, but its tourism hotspots tend to center on its prominent Gulf-side beaches. Inland from the Gulf, however, sits a worthy collection of outdoor attractions preserving Florida's natural, cultural, and historical treasures without any beaches involved. A superb Florida hidden gem for history and nature lovers alike is the small but extraordinary Crystal River Archaeological State Park. With the word "archaeological" in its name, you can probably guess that this park is a bit more history-minded than most Florida state parks. At the same time, this park is far from a stuffy history lecture, and you'll find top-tier inland water recreation along with its historic treasures.
