Friends. You know that I have been showing my community by walking around to some of the nearby areas and places.
Sometimes though. In order to save time. I have to use a vehicle to get to some of the places.
Anyplace more than 2-3 miles away. I will need a bicycle or vehicle to get there. Too much time to walk to there and then walk another 2-3 miles beyond that. Time is so important to all of us.
You can see what I am showing to you in the photo above.
Here is the name of the beautiful place you see above.
Not everyplace we go to for you to see will be a million dollar estate. Some will be what you see here.
But, know this. Some of these manufactured homes in the right locations, sell for well over two hundred thousand dollars. That is not uncommon. Especially on prime waterway locations.
This resident owned property looks to be well taken care of.
The steps to the water from this home is not far. Ha
Just leave a fishing line in the water to see what is in there.
Some people won't eat fish out of a lake or pond like this.
Too many chemicals have been sprayed controlling weeds and other nuisance plants.
You can see two people in the photo. Everything that I see looks to be well taken care of.
That is important for different reasons.
I do like to look at this place and I am sure that many of the people loves living there.
This to me is a great place to be. But for now. I need for you to stay with me while I make the next move.
The roadway is there for the journey.
I need to get us over to another place of some happiness for us.
And what is that? Orange juice. No, not the kind you buy in the stores.
That orange juice has been compromised for it's original value. "Pasteurized"
This is fresh squeezed at the citrus grove. Now that is worth drinking.
Maybe you can see that "Blossom" want you to put in 0.05 cents in her apron pocket to pay for the O.J.
For each cup you want to drink.
That is cheap. The O.J. price here is $5.50 per half gallon.
So that won't make anyone much money. Maybe it will pay for the plastic cups and labor. I doubt it though.
So, please do the right thing. Otherwise, it could be shutdown. Ugh on that.
Oh, this time I didn't see any "grapefruit juice." I usually try some of it. It is all very good.
If you would rather sample the fruit. Just lift the cover lid and sample what you see. No charge.
Then, the hope is that you will buy some bags of fruit. lol
You can see where you are on the sacks. Nokomis Groves in Nokomis Florida.
And in the store is one of the original tractors from the start of the Orange Grove.
If I can remember right. It was started in 1948. That may not be the exact year.
But, it has been there for many years now.
The specialty there is "fresh squeezed" orange juice ice cream. And it is delicious.
And very expensive too. The price has went up a lot over the years.
Part of the reason is that the tourist will pay anything.
Price doesn't matter when you are having fun.
It is time to put this on Steemit for you. I haven't even walked yet today. I do need to.
Let me show you this little beauty first.
What will I do next? Those of you that have been following me for any length of time.
You know that I have a heart for love songs. I always have.
It doesn't matter to me very much what style or type of songs/music.
Just so that it speaks to me. This might shock some of you.
But, maybe you will like it to. It speaks volumes to me.

Friends that is what I have for you today. And maybe I have helped Steemit a little too.
All I can do is try.
Thank you.
Francis
Isn't that nice that you can have a little taste of freshly squeezed orange juice or an actual piece of fruit if you want to.
Oh, thank you for reminding me of where I am. Now, if only I was on cloud nine instead of the bottom of the barrel. But, the song says "rain is coming" and I might float to the top. I can hope anyway.
You are so right. Everything we need is here. Just the will to reach out and take it.
Breathing out at the same time so many thanks to all of those who bring joy to my soul.
So thank you for the joy you bring to me each time I see your lovely name.
You always leave a trail of nothing but goodness for us to follow.
Only on Steemit. Both now and into the future.
Francis
Hahaha! I like that a lot Francis...a trail of goodness. It's a tall order but I will do my best to keep sprinkling the goodness around. LOL!
loving to your music song.Very nice and amazing photo shoots with beautiful natural scenes I personally liked it thanks for sharing @francisk
You are welcome. Thank you for your encouraging words for my work.
I love songs. Especially love songs.
But soon. I am going to move on to something a little more upbeat.
Francis
Beautiful maroon color flower and nice to hear classic song entire. Its beauty. Better contribution.
Up-Voted & Re-Steemed.Better starting and classic finishing @francisk. Such a outstanding photography. You've professional skills for photo field. Lake side area clearly maintained and well designed. Good place to relax under the nice weather condition. How feel to you if has some drink? its king-coconut drink or fresh-milk..... Noooooo......Its grapefruit juice.. Pretty cool idea.
Thank you.
I will say all this is keeping me very busy. But, that is what we must do.
For all of us on Steemit. Each doing our part.
Francis
Above capture totally attracted me. Florida has "Japanese" Garden. Its more awesome with brilliantly maintain lake and garden area. Nice vision. Wow....If "grapefruit juice"- have now can be coolest. Thanks for the effort.
I agree. Very pretty.
Thank you
Francis
@francisk, Yep...I agreed time is most important for us. Without time management we can't go success way. Time is a gold. Outstanding view of pond. You taken click various margins. Palm trees giving nice looking to out-view area. Until walking gives more worth to water. Water most important to our life. How much charge for fruit bag? Nice tractor and beautiful flower indeed. Better music telling me say-good bye.
Fruit bag is high. Much higher than the grocery stores.
The grove sells on perception. It works well for them.
Francis
Great post.
Oh yeah, your famous pond liked me the first time, it's nice to watch beautiful houses around it and the rich vegetation around them. I liked your photos of oranges and I can imagine how much natural juice can be made from them, I was also pleased not with an ordinary tractor, I have not seen such ones yet. Thank you Francis for the wonderful story of your life!
Thank you for your support.
It helps keeping me going.
Francis
