Nature Reclamation – August 18, 2017
Off North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, FL
Friendly Way Food Stores – DeLand, FL – August 13, 2017
Corner of South Florida Ave and Beresford Ave I’d forgotten about Friendly Way stores, and as best I can tell this may be the only one left. I’m pretty sure the convenience store on New York Ave just East of Blue Lake Ave, near where I grew up, was a Friendly Way as well, but…
Phone Booth – DeLand, FL – August 13, 2017
South Woodland Blvd
Abandoned | Daytona | Florida | Restaurants
The Other Place – Ormond Beach, FL
I stopped into The Other Place, or rather the place formerly known as The Other Place, in July 2017 to snap a few pics before some greedy developer snags up this prime slice of real estate (now that the Hard Rock is in town I’m sure there’s going to be a development buzz….). I vaguely…

NJ Transit Northeast Corridor Express – NY Penn to Metropark – Friday, May 19, 2017

Jubilee Orchards – Tallahassee, FL – Sunday May 7, 2017
We took a short (about 10 mile) drive up Miccosukee Road this afternoon to a you-pick-em blue berry orchard: Jubilee Orchards. It was a nice way to spend a not too warm spring Sunday, except of course for the gnats… But in any case we would highly recommend heading out there, but you’d better hurry,…
Mannheim Germany – Patton’s Accident Site
“Never let the enemy pick the battle site.” I saw the original “Patton” on a double VHS when I was a kid and loved it. I call the original because there actually was a made-for-TV sequel made in the 80’s about Patton’s last days, in which we watch George C. Scott reprise his role…
