INDEPENDENCE WEEKEND AT MT DORA



This fourth of July was different from those of previous years. We usually stay at home or go somewhere close and watch the fireworks. Not the case this year.

A family get together in Apopka with Bar B Que was enough of an invitation to get the "Old
Guy" up and behind the wheel of the family limo and head North. Thank God traffic was OK.


Once again there was a lot of "catching up" with Cousins and Aunts and Uncles that have been hard to see during the course of a lifetime. He got two good pics of his Uncles, who he claims fought with General Washington. Top that off with great food and fireworks and one will conclude that we had a great time.

After the gang all went home our driver took us to Mt Dora. It was just up the road. The Lakeside Inn provide a great setting for a two night visit. The "Old Guy" fit in perfectly with all those antique stores. He had to be dragged out of one of them before he made another one of his great deals. Well the trip is over and again we settle for some nice "Pool Time" and enjoy life here in the "The Walk."
