Jean,
We are up near Spring Garden at the end of West Howry. We are in the older and not fancy (however very well built!) past Stetson Heights Estates area. The Stetson Mansion is right around the corner and where my house sits used to be where the Orange groves used to be many Moons ago....; and isn't it sad that the Stetson Mansion sits in the middle of such a dumpy area these days! It will never sell at 7 Million or so with the views one would have from the third floor these days. Too bad something that incredible wasn't on a beautiful waterway like the St. Johns or Blue Springs huh? Now, and on the third floor looking out you see 'Speedway' Spring Garden and a convenience store. Oy vey!

Anyways, its pretty over here in the old Orange groves, (I'm trying!) and I even think old Stetson himself would find some beauty in it if he were here on occasion. Shrug! Rolling my eyes. maybe!

Stop by sometime! I would of course like your first visit to be in Spring around April or May when I have more beauties to share! Smiling
