93/365 - Downtown Mt. Dora

With my parents in town, we went to explore downtown Mt. Dora. It was a beautiful day and we had a fantastic time.

I love these old buildings - the tile is gorgeous!







I also love how the city has partnered with local business to beautiful with plants and flowers.



Loved this little display



The purple lantana was gorgeous too!





My beautiful mom in front of the lantana



Matt chillin



We even spotted Ashley's corner - for my brother's girlfriend



Really loved this cute little sign



To make you think....



Still not sure what this odd little creation is



Love the old typewriter



My dad noticed that the sign was posted missing an S. It's completely not there - not just rubbed off, not there.





Cupcakes in Mt. Dora







Later we did some geocaching near Lake Dora



Check out this gorgeous wood boat!



While we only successful on 2 out of 3 caches - we did get a chance to see this very cool sight. A mother and father goose and their nest with three eggs in it!

Here is mama with her nest







The nest


Mama and Daddy walking around warning everyone to stay away


We ended up at the Tiki Hut on Lake Minneola for dinner. It's one of the best places to for sunset, the food is great too!

My parents are in town and we spend the afternoon hanging out. We checked out some thrift stores and yard sales and while cruising around we spotted this in my neighborhood.



How cute is that? A local church group is hired to place all the flamingos on the yard and then the home owner makes a donation to remove them all.

Here's a flowering tree in our backyard. Not really sure what it is - but it's pretty.







Matt got these in the mail today. His sister rescued them from storage. It's a copy of one of the first programs he wrote many many years ago, saved to cassette tape.

General the dog (91/365)

General is a black lab who is being trained to become a service animal. He comes to our school every day with Kate Rosin, his current owner and trainer,  and learns to socialize with crowds, handle being in an office and generally have a great time. He'll be leaving us soon to go on to the next step of his journey. In fact, his foster mom is getting ready to pick up a new puppy very soon to start training the next generation. We'll miss him very much.







Some lovely flowers in our lobby today.

March 2010

Two photos for every single day of March 2010

That brings me up to 180 photos for the year - 90 for each group.

I'm also at 455 photos for each group since I started taking a photo every day.

90/365 Chocolate Covered Peeps

We tried a chocolate covered peep today





Honestly, I did not love it.



It was too sweet.



But then again, I don't really like Peeps.


Garden update - Peas are on their way!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Cat grass and daisies are growing too!
