A short mileage day -- just as well as it rained in the morning and agaian in the afternoon. We squeezed a pleasant ride in between the storms. Today's ride was through orange groves and cattle country. We even found a winery -- in Florida no less. We stopped there for water refills and ice cream. The free range chickens were very interested in the ice cream. We passed a huge development that apparently went belly-up -- many streets and stop signs, but no houses. Maybe never will be.
Lake Placid used to be called Lake Stearns. Melville Dewey settled here and convinced them to change the name to honor his home town in New York.
