Mermaids, Manatees, and a Hippo. Homosassa & Weeki Wachee Springs
This week the Madcaps discuss two very well-known springs in Florida. Weeki Wachee and Homosassa Springs. Both springs were once Florida attractions before being acquired by the state. Now they still function yet with a more conservation-minded experience.
