i've been looking at locations for us to meet around the clermont area where i grew up. i posted this on MCO too since the info needs to be spread around...

here's the scouting report from the first trip through my old stomping grounds...

there's a few car clubs that meet on different nights of the week at the citrus tower so it has jumped to the top of my list for possible meeting points.

1. easy to find, you can see it miles away
2. lots of parking
3. its near the curvy roads

clermont has absolutely exploded since i left to go off to college. we'll have to drive a little further out to get some good motoring ground than we used to in my day! i'm thinking old hwy 50 to 455 through montverde, up sugarloaf mountain. i haven't figured out the rest of the route though. there's a mexican resaurant in the bottom of the citrus tower now. i heard its good. it used to be a generic diner with a breakfast buffet. the kiwanis club used to meet there all the time. it used to be you could see citrus trees from the citrus tower but now all you can see is houses and apartments.

i'm still considering other locations though. there are two small pavilions down by the lake but you have to pay to park now (grrrrr...) and its not as easy to find as the citrus tower.

more news to follow later...
