Green Swamp Country Store

I was rolling up State Road 33 (Florida) on the east side of Green Swamp today and noticed that the Green Swamp Country Store was open. Well, almost...the doors were open but the new Sunoco fuel pumps installed out front weren't operating yet; had bags over the pump handles. Looks like they've got the regular convenience store fare thing going like before and are working on a deli.

The 172 mile Green Swamp Loop that circumnavigates the swamp is one of the most popular motorcycle and scenic ride loops in all of Florida. However, the east side along State Road 33 has been all but barren in terms of amenities since the Country Store's being shuttered three or four years ago. Since then we're left to decide to get gas at Rockridge and US98 or wait until Webster.

Not anymore. Good news and I'm glad to see the Country Store open again.
