VWWVIIMIIIH MORE FLORIDA Some one asked why 1 didn't tell more about our re cent trip to Florida to attend the Southern Conference of Council of State Governments at Sarasota sessions of which were held at Colony Beach Resort right on the Gulf. My chief reason in not dis cussing this too much was the fact that we have so many people here, summer and winter residents, that know Florida inside and out and cer tainly would not be inteiested in what 1 had seen and heard But if and when you go to Florida, be sure to see the Singing Tower near Lake Wales, and go or come oyer the Citrus Highway which runs through Central Florida (I believe it’s US. 27) and passes through the orange growing section of the state. In fact we saw more orange trees between Sarasota and Gainesville than I had seen in all my other travels in Florida put together. At times it looks as if the orange orchards or groves (whichever term is correct) must cover the entire earth. If you want a panoramic view of a large area of groves and lakes, stop at Clermont and take the elevator to the top of Citrus Tower. It was too hot the day we stopped but some say you can see Orlando to the east. The tower has all kinds of attract ions but with the temperature hovering near the 99 mark we were interested chiefly in the fountain which served the coldest and finest orange juice we found in the state. STILL BUILDING Florida is still growing at a fast pace. New residents are pouring into the state from the east and midwest looking for permanent hous ing, schools for their children, and other facilities. This has created serious problems in many areas and indications are that it will be some time before the situa tion starts to improve. One man we talked to hac arrived the week before from Connecticut with his family to “live in Florida”. Tired of the snow, ice, and cold weather in the northeast, he had quit his job, sold his home, and loaded all the family into a trailer and headed south. They settled at Sarasota because they liked the west coast and found it not as crowded as the Miami area. He will have no pron lem oi income, so he explain ed, but the family he brought along will tend to furthei crowd the schools come fall All through central Florid; and along the west coast neai Sarasota and Bradenton, soutl of Tampa and St. Petersburg there are hundreds of nev homes being built in develop ments designed for the per son looking for a home in th< sun. In the Sarasota area, an< I presume in other coast com munities, huge development are underway to provide thousands of new homes al with their own water fronts This is not as hard as i may sound to us who ive si far from the ocean. The dt velopers merely die channel from the gulf inland, concret the sides, divide the land int lots each fronting cn :h canals or channels and se them to the land hungry se tiers. Each lot. of course, hn its own landing so that th owners each may have private boat dock. But the new developmeni are not confined to the coas Far inland there are ne housing units containin hundreds, maybe thousand of new homes built on pave streets that stretch away i the distance. That type < living wouldn’t suit the avc age mountaineer but it seen to satisfy many of the ne residents of Florida. Please do not consider th as advice from an expert c Florida. Far from it. The; are just a few of the impre sions gained while on week’s trip to Sarasota. For authentic informatic write the chamber of cor merce in the city of yoi choice. YES, WHO WAS SHF? Who was the Black Mounta lady who has property belon ing to some one else, knov it, and is wondering, or wa just how to go about retur ing it? Looking over the pieces a new tent which she h; bought to take the fami camping, she decided that oi piece was missing. Being practical person she prompt went back to the store, co vinced the salesman that 1 had shorted her when the ori inal purchase was made, ar walked out with a brand ne piece. Some time later when she and others put up the tent it didn't look just right but no one could figure out exactly why. “It just didn’t look square.” she confided, “but we decided to leave it as it was”. Later, when an expert looked over the tent he soon found why it wasn't square and never would be under the circumstances. The reason was that where there were supposed to be four pieces, and there are al ways four sides to a square, there were five. Now she realizes, the lady in question that is, why the blessed tent was so hard to erect and why by using the five pieces instead of four they came out with a figure slightly on the roundish side. And it certainly was hard to get it to stay up. Now the problem is: Should she take the extra piece back to the salesman, explain she was wrong and ask forgive ness? or should she take it back to the store, find a time when no one is looking, lay it down and quietly steal away? This is a tough decision t make but not as hard as pu ting up a five sided tent is HORSE SHOW We congratulate the offi cials and all those who have had a part in bringing to the ! community the 8th annual ( horse show which will hold , sway at the Monte Vista Farm Friday and Saturday.
