La Florida!

My sister and IIt’s sunny, it’s humid, it’s hot, it’s flat … it’s bland. It’s Florida!

My sister is beautiful! She’s 39 weeks pregnant with her first kid. My mom and Gary have bought a new house in Leesburg and I’m helping them move in and such. My sister and I are in the “living area” of the new place in the picture. It’s a very central Florida house, in what is known as an adult golf community. 80% of the residents are retirees. Neither my mom, nor Gary play golf. But, the house is nice!

I’m here to visit family, soak up some sun, hang-out, be lazy, see friends and then take off to Europe on December 16.

Leesburg is in Lake County, and as you can see by the map below, this part of the state can be described as “porous” it has so many lakes in it! All those black dots? Lakes. If you scroll the map to the right, to the big lake shaped like a gourd - I grew up at the south end of that Lake in Winter Garden.
