Gullible!


I wasn't going to take this photograph, but Mr. Gull told me he was a very special species of seagull from the far north. I couldn't resist that!

Then I ran into some other gulls and they told me Mr. Gull was just a plain ol' Florida seagull.

I'm so gullible!

Live web cam in Spanish Springs town square


We've posted pictures of this building before, but not at this angle. If you look at the top right of the building you will see what looks a bit like a light, but in reality is a web cam...it brings you a live view of what is happening in the area of the Spanish Springs town square.

If you're interested, click here.

At night, of course, it is difficult to see clearly. But note also, you can click below the picture to get a live view of the Lake Sumter Landing town square. I'm not sure where the Sumter Landing camera is.

Oblivious


They might be small and they might be cute, but you don't want get hit by a speeding golf car - especially if it is driven by a little old lady rushing to meet her friends for an "early bird" dinner in Spanish Springs!

This is for my good friend, Vogon Poet, who with his sweetie, Trillian, produce the amazingly beautiful blog from Livorno, Italy. Dr. Poet likes all things Florida (especially The Villages) except for our friendly little gators!

The sinking ship in the morning fog


This ship, which continues to slowly sink into Lake Sumter, is found at Lake Sumter Landing. Not to worry, though. Remember this is a "Disneyesque" world and it is meant to do that!
