A Place For Us?


Clara and Me Now  
Our first time needing two cars because I was driving to Orlando for Grandparents Day, and Grant was heading to Fort Lauderdale to facilitate the men’s group. I rented from an allegedly low cost rental company, but with extra charges, it was not. Still much cheaper than having two cars. A story for another day.

Grandparents Day ended up being only a couple of hours so I had plenty of time to scout out the area of Windermere. The little downtown doesn’t have much of any stores, but it does have bike trails/sidewalks for miles. I could ride all the way from some new development to the library or several different parks. Lots of huge old oaks; nice landscaping, birds.

The main street is narrow and brick-paved with roundabouts. Side streets are natural sand. All this is deliberate to discourage thru traffic heading to I-4 and Disney.  Because there are lakes on both sides of this narrow corridor, old Windermere cannot grow any larger. Very Key Biscayne. I like it. And like KB, pricey houses.

I really like that we would be so close to Clara. Being able to stop by her volleyball games, not driving four hours up the turnpike. Priceless. Maybe we should take her up on her offer to come and live with her when our lease runs out.
