Exploring Lake Wales

 
Our little friend, the Heron, was visiting us today!!
 
Having a great time though our temperature took a nosedive this week.  We had the evening as low as 40F or 5C and torrential rain on Tuesday.  Today was better we were up to a high of 75F or 24C.  Thursday my brother, Mike and Donna stopped in for a visit and we had lunch.  Enjoyed ourselves so much I forgot to take a picture.   Next week we are heading to my brother, Gerry and Amy for Thanksgiving in Bradenton.  Looking forward to spending a couple of days.   I am making pecan pie and Swedish apple pie!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
Love the orange groves here!!  Not quite ripe yet can't wait for the U-pick! 
 
Florida Natural plant is right besides us!! 

 
 
 



Love the palm trees!!!  Can't tell it was in a Walmart parking lot!!  Haha
 
Took a drive thru Lake Wales historic area!! This was from 1920!!

 
The old town clock in the historic downtown.  They are working on restoring the area to the 1920 appearance!!
