I was in Leesburg, Central Florida this weekend to attend the baptism of my friends daughter. They live close to this retirement community called The Villages where this lake, named Cherry Lake, is also located. The town is a 55-and-up community with their own shopping centers, bars, restaurants, cinemas, medical/dental clinics, groceries, sports and other recreation facilities. It was also weird seeing a lighhouse beside this tiny lake until I realized the whole town is staged including those boats floating in the middle of the lake.
You captured this photo perfectly. I have never been able to take good photos without clouds in the sky. Mine always look like there is something missing. Your photo is fantastic. Definitely nothing missing in your above photo!

Thank you Jade! I do prefer clouds when I take photos of the sky. This one just turned out better than I expected. By the way, thanks for dropping by. Hope you visit again soon.

Lovely but too sterile for us. Like Disney for retirees…. π slumming it in Daytona Beach. π

Yup! Not my kind of place to retire as well. I’m a South Floridian all the way. π

Hi Amy! I heard the place can get a little wild when it turns dark. All these retirees just wanna have fun. LOL! Thanks for dropping by my page and for the comment. Drop by again soon.

Thanks Judy! It was a very interesting place. And the terrain was very different from South Florida where I’m from. Too bad I never got to go around to take more photos. Maybe on another trip in the future.
