That house we looked at that was for sale, it's being sold for $860,000 plus.

You's can have it!

It has 6 acres.

OMG! I totally been to Micanopy several times. Did some boating out that way. Haven't been there in years. Still looks exactly the same according to those pics. One street is downtown. LOL!

I see you got some ice cream. I guess that ice cream parlor on the end of the building is still there.

By the way, regarding that Cafe Risque photo that was put up. That place helped a lot of college girls fund their tuition at school! LOL!!!!!! I take it you were a shareholder! LOL!

Ouch! Naw man, we'll pass. Lordy, I wonder what our spread is worth up here below Tallahassee.. Our house isn't as big or as nice, but we do have nearly 50 acres.

BTW, here's a few pics I took at Micanopy...

I also took some video, but so far I haven't even attempted to figure out how to convert the high definition video into something compatible to post on the web......

Actually, I thought the opposite. I don't think that digicam of mine takes very good still pics. The details aren't as crisp as I like them, which really isn't too big of an issue with videos. I just think you need to underexpose your pics just a hair. That will give a bit more color saturation.

I don't have any idea why those reflection highlights are starburst like they are. I have a filter on the front of the lens, which may explain that. Actually it may also explain the lack of detail sharpness as well.... Duh....

Rich, I like the shot of your Z with the sunlight dazzle! Very nice. Who had the vette in front of your car? It has the wagon wheels so it must be pre-2000

Yeah, it was kind of odd. Connie and I get there and parked waiting for Ray and Angel to show up. When we say this black vette circle around to park in front of us, we thought it was them. But it was a C5 instead. There were actually a few other vettes in and out there all day that day.

As for that sunlight dazzle, that filter on my camera is supposed to just be a UV filter and NOT produce that kind of effect. There are special filters made with cross screen hatching in them to produce this sort of effect, however. Maybe I need to look more closely at that filter. Those crosshatch filters WILL soften the image somewhat.......

I'm spending the night at the Herlong Mansion next Tuesday the 6th of March. Thought it might be neat for a night and I'd like to see Micanopy. I'm in a see uncrowded Florida while it's still there phase.
