This is great and should be a sticky.

The only thing that I notice that should be changed is the second map showing Orange Park north of I-295 all the way to I-10. That is actually Jax.

Absolutley. Please post your question as a new thread. I would like to keep conversation off of this thread, that way it can remain an easy to read "Reference Guide". Thanks so much.

The first two maps in this post are incorrect, showing Orange Park in Duval County extending to I-10 and Mandarin extending east to the intracoastal waterway.
