Mount Dora, Fl

2/22/2015 - we took a trip to Mount Dora today. 

In a stretch of land so flat a 184-foot elevation is enough to deem a place "Mount" sits Florida's Mount Dora, a town which has managed to hang on to its charming historic, and authentic character despite being less than an hour's drive from Orlando, the happiest-most artifical-place on earth.  

Founded in the early 1880's, Mount Dora is known today as the antiquing capital of Florida, with more dealers than anywhere else in the state. 

Gorgeous location on the shores of 4,500 acre Lake Dora. 

We enjoyed the town, browsing in all the little shops.


Carp relaxing outside a great little store named Nooks & Craney shop. 

This was a sign as you enter the shop. 
Giving wives permission to buy whatever they want. 😃

Silly me with my sun bonnet on relaxing. 

Until next adventure, Gypsy Jean. Take care.
