It’s always fun to drive to Ozello with it’s winding road and beautiful views. On Saturday we made the scenic drive there to check out the Ozello Arts and Crafts Festival.
Out and About
Car Show at Black Diamond
Couldn’t possibly make all the fun events that were scheduled for the weekend in the county but we did get to the Black Diamond Invitational Car Show. Over 200 cars. All arranged around a fairway. The weather was unusually warm for this time of year, but I will NEVER complain about sunshine and 80 degrees in November!
Terry and I were actually on a mini-mission. Looking for cars from 1951. Found two. Weird mission, right?
The owner of this car was really cool and happy to help us out.
Why do people insist on getting into my pictures?
This guy, not so helpful. But it was still a nice car.
There were a lot of shiny cars there. Over 200. Here’s some of my favorite.
Once again, some guy got into my photo!
Okay. This is the one I wanted to take home. Well, maybe a different color! Once again, left without a new car!
Friday Meanderings
We were in Tampa last weekend for Darin and Kathryn’s wedding. The venue was the Davis Island Garden Club. Fun. Fun. Fun. Got to see all of our children, grandchildren, cousins, nieces, nephews, and other assorted family members. I didn’t bring my camera to the wedding so my only pics were from when I remembered to use my phone.
We stayed at the ALoft hotel in downtown Tampa. Gorgeous views and the riverwalk right outside the door. We lived in Tampa for many years and were really excited to spend a few days there.
It was a fun-filled weekend full of family events. For the past four years we’ve either had a big wedding or significant birthday to celebrate and it’s been so great seeing all of the extended family and catching up on their lives. Kind of like a reunion where we get all dressed up. Hopefully we can continue with this new tradition–without any weddings!
So what’s going on this weekend?
Halloween parties, of course! Going to be a great big moon to make things extra spooky!
Next Saturday, Nov. 7, is the Blues & BBQ at the Museum Cafe in Old Homosassa. It’s a great concert and if you buy your tickets in advance, it’s $5 cheaper. Gonna get ours today!
Then the Homosassa Arts, Crafts, and Seafood Festival is the following weekend. November 14-15. Fun! $2.00 admission, kids are free. Lots of great food, unique crafts, and beautiful art. And there is entertainment this year.
But don’t bring your dog! Maggie will be very sadly staying home.
The Old Homosassa Heritage Council will have a booth just outside the Festival. There will be raffle tickets for a golf cart for just a $5 donation! And the lucky winning raffle ticket will be drawn on that Sunday afternoon. Need not be present to win. Don’t you want to win a golf cart? Don’t you want to support the Old Homosassa Heritage Council?
If you are into treasure hunting, the weekend of November 20 – 22 is the Renninger’s Antique Extravaganza in Mount Dora.
That’s it!
Have a great weekend!
