As most of you know (and I have posted it numerous times on the Sanford365 Facebook page), this weekend it’s movie time in Sanford!! It looks like the Love Your Shorts Film Festival will be another great success this year! I attended opening night yesterday (Friday, February 15th) and wanted to share some pictures and [...]

Picture of My Day – 60 – Seminole State Forest Sanford

Seminole State Forest

On this spectacular Sunday (temperatures in the mid 70s and sunny) we decided to go for a walk. Jose recently “discovered” Seminole State Forest so we decided to check it out. As you enter the premises (right off 46 in Sanford, going towards Lake County) you will see a gorgeous little lake surrounded by trees [...]

Groupon just sent out their daily email with a great idea for Things to Do in Sanford: Take a glass crafting class at Glass Addicts in Sanford! I hadn’t heard of Glass Addicts before but now I am curious and added them to my list of businesses to check out in the near future. For [...]

Day 346 – Sanford Veterans Memorial Park

346_1photo

After having lunch in downtown Sanford on a beautiful Saturday I walked down to the Veterans Memorial Park. The flag hung on half mast that day because of Ted Kennedy’s death, I assume (so yes, I am once again behind on my posts…shame on me!). This little park right by the Sanford Riverwalk is actually [...]

Day 337 – Trivia Night at the Sanford Wine Company

Trivia Night at the Sanford Wine Company

I had previously mentioned that The Trivia Tart was going to host a Trivia Night on August 20 at the Sanford Wine Company. Of course we had to check out the new location for this always fun event – and were quite happy with it ;o) I hadn’t been to Trivia in a while and [...]

Day 277 – Wekiva Falls

Wekiva Falls Resort

One of the best (and very affordable) activities for a summer weekend is visiting Wekiva Falls Resort in Lake County (Sorrento) – not to be confused with Wekiva Springs in Longwood, FL. It is actually only a short drive away from Sanford (10 minutes from mall area) but canoeing on the Wekiva River will make [...]

Rivership Romance

Since I work too much and probably won’t get to do this before my 365 project is over I wanted to still be sure to post something about the Rivership Romance in Sanford. It is currently high on my list of things to do but with my days completely overbooked I am running out of [...]

Day 197 – Seminole County Fair in Sanford FL

Seminole County Fair

Fairs have been fascinating to me ever since! I prefer the old fashioned fair over a modern amusement park anytime. Not sure what it is about it, maybe childhood memories, the much more affordable price (free parking and admission, $1 rides) or simply the types of rides that are much less harmful and wild, yet [...]
