Local Outing: Black Hammock Restaurant / Oviedo

We joined some friends for dinner this weekend at a little restaurant called the Black Hammock in Oviedo.  The food was pretty good but the outdoor view was wonderful.  Had a nice, cool breeze, spotted a few alligators in Lake Jessup plus a gorgeous sunset to end the evening.




This one is my P52 photo week #18 (I'm #16) for this week.

Easter Blossoms and Blooms 2014

After church on Easter Sunday, our family went out to lunch.  The park near the restaurant was bursting with blooms as was the restaurant entrance.

Disney Epcot Flower & Garden Festival : Disney Characters

We were at the flower and garden show last weekend and I took photos of some of the characters formed out of plants.  The Snow White face is amazing!

Horsin' Around / Atlantic Center for the Arts

My husband and I attended a live auction fundraiser lunch event over the weekend with the theme Horsin' Around. [Atlantic Center for the Arts] I tried to capture some of the equine art and (run for the) roses throughout the venue...always fun to see.

This metal sculpture had several bids throughout the morning/afternoon.

Winter Park Art Festival 2014

We love attending the Winter Park Sidewalk Arts Festival each year... just a few photos there and this giant-sized dog sculpture we spotted on the way there.   It was a gorgeous day!


I'll use this one for my P52 entry for Week 14.  I'm #  36.
