2 lane north 41, on the left side is the future Pelican Bay and the 2 lakes are Cardinal Lake (closest to 41) & the other is Mockingbird Lake in Pine Ridge. Here's a map link to this picture & you probably ask me homeboy, Do I look stupid I've lived here for blah, blah,blah? Keep in mind even most of my family has trouble recognizing anything in these photo's without any landmarks.

Not a blog more like another pier banyan tree, a place to come & sit for a little while & wait for something fun to happen. A place for all the greezers, candyasses, Halloween egg throwers, former Publix bagboys & dirt bike riders to kill a little time until Halloween. Just like the good old days, wait around for a couple hours until you could find some geezer to buy you beer...
