Sunday afternoon we took a drive, stopping first at Solomon’s
Castle (see http://www.solomonscastle.org/
). This is the home and studio of Howard
Solomon who has a very creative mind.
It is a whacky, creative place that is only slightly
off-the-beaten-path. Later we continued
on to the southern shore of
Monday we rode the motorcycle most of the day as we were given a guided tour led by Ron and Arlene
They are retired Minnesotans who have converted a livestock
trailer into a custom toyhauler, living in the front while garaging their Gold
Wing in the back.
We wandered around
central Florida riding, stopping
for coffee, riding, stopping for tourism stuff, riding, stopping for lunch,
riding, stopping for ice cream, followed by more riding – so you get the
idea. We saw phosphate strip mines, lots
of lakes, a few hills, and more orange trees than we knew existed.
The growers are busy harvesting the juice
oranges (they hand pick them!) so there is a lot of activity in the
orchards.
