We're all about Sanford Florida!
Randomness Alert ;o) – Sometimes I wish I had a better zoom… This airplane seemed so close when I first got out the camera…Nevertheless, it made the picture of the day. As I am approaching my 365 deadline I am noticing how often I visit the same places in Sanford and area. Even though I [...]
So I guess our official “Labor Day” was today since we spent a good amount of time on the couch. I am not sure how the name “couch potato” was invented but I think that’s what we were today. We watched almost 3 movies and were just lazy. That’s because tomorrow’s Labor Day will be [...]
Since we stayed in Tampa overnight (didn’t want to drive back late after the concert) we spent the night there. The next day we went to have lunch in an area called Westchase before heading home to Sanford. The area reminded me a lot of the area around Colonial Town Park in Lake Mary, potentially [...]
How exciting, we went to the Depeche Mode concert at the Ford Amphitheater in Tampa! I have been a fan of this awesome band since my teen years so I couldn’t wait to finally see them live. It was such a great experience and I didn’t want the concert to end. Below are more pictures [...]
Yay! I was very excited when I received a call last week about a potential article featuring the Sanford365 Blog in the Orlando Sentinel! Of course, I agreed to be interviewed and sure enough, the article was published today in the Orlando Sentinel. Here is a link to the article. This is obviously a huge [...]
My good old (and I don’t mean that age wise) friend Chris, author of a great novel that I got to read years ago, came down to Lake Mary today to celebrate his birthday with us over a cold happy hour beer, or should I say Guiness (he loves that stuff). And what better place [...]
I always like passing the US flags when walking down the Riverwalk. Maybe it’s because there’s always at least a light breeze from Lake Monroe that makes them wave in the wind or just the scenery but I have been wanting to take a picture of these 2 flags for a while now. One is [...]
Since 2007 there is a monthly wine club get together in our neighborhood. We typically host it at any of the participating wine club “members” houses where we sample wines (based on the theme of the month, could be Italian wines, Merlots, you name it…). Every neighbor is required to bring a bottle of wine [...]
Just a quick impression from the Sanford Idol competition at the Sanford Wine Company. I enjoyed it a lot and the contestants were awesome that night! The picture was taken with my phone camera which explains the bad quality… I am catching up on my blog right now, so this picture was taken not this [...]
Here’s just a random shot taken in downtown Sanford. I loved the contrast of the white building number on red brick of this building in historic Sanford. Can you guess which building this is Pin It
A rainy day in Sanford. I wanted to take our guests out a bit so we decided to run over to the mall. As we left the house I looked up in the sky and saw this amazing “gradient sky”. The designers among you will understand why I am so fascinated with this truly natural [...]
Carlos and Charlies at Colonial Town Park has become one of our favorite destinations for a fun evening or dinner, or a good happy hour. Since our good friends from Detroit are visiting this week we brought them over here for lunch and the Margarita Happy Hour ($2 margaritas, daily from 3pm-7pm). As you can [...]
So out of my list of things to do on the 4th of July (featured on this blog), we picked the Wekiva Falls event. We had a blast and are even thinking about making it our 4th of July tradition… It was a great idea to bring our gazebo tent. It didn’t rain but it [...]
Another attempt at skyline shots of Orlando – this time out of the driving car. I still have to try a shoot from the Lake Ivanhoe location that was suggested, just haven’t had the time yet… Pin It
I have enjoyed this little courtyard at Park Place at Heahtrow ever since I first saw it. It’s a great little area to just sit and relax. Best of all, it is rarely busy so the benches around the center fountain are typically available. I sometimes walk out here (since it’s so close to our [...]
Oh yes, it’s true – and here’s the proof: we met Shaquille O’Neal to show him one of our listings in Lake Mary! I still can’t believe it!!! This totally made my day When he called we first couldn’t believe it, thought someone was playing a joke on us. But we went to meet him [...]
I always wonder how I could possibly take a good shot of the Orlando skyline but it seems very difficult. So today I just tried to take one from the car as I was waiting to exit I-4 at the Colonial Drive Exit. Let’s see where I can find a better spot without risking to [...]
Just a snapshot of one of the brick archways in the community entrance area of Lake Forest in Sanford (right off highway 46 in Sanford FL, less than a mile from Exit 101 C, west of I-4). The community entrance area is beautiful (just as Lake Forest itself) and makes a nice spot for pictures. [...]
Randomness Alert We still had some frozen hamburger patties in our freezer (from last year’s Labor Day pool party…yes, I know, it’s been a while, but we just never eat burgers) so Jose asked me to do burgers. Quite honestly, I am not an expert when it comes to cooking and probably even less when [...]
All the rain has truly made our yards green! So at least it was good for something, right? This is a beautiful yard of a home we currently have under contract. I thought this picture could really show off how beautiful Florida’s “backyard nature” is Pin It
