This was a fun one. By chance the day I finally got around to walking around my neighborhood (1/25) it happened to be sunny and breezy, around seventy degrees. Basically the only time it's pleasant to go outside in Florida. I live in a massive condominium complex bordered on one side by College Parkway and by a 200 foot wide preserve and creek on the other. The preserve is actually nice, even though there's not enough space for any animals big enough to entertain me.
The complex itself is built around a naturally occurring lake which the developer conveniently bisected in order that I could drive right up to my front door without an outrageous thirty second detour. The developer was good enough to install aerators in the lake to keep the fish from dying. They work most of the time. There's not much that's actually "green" about the development. Every day there are landscapers here laying down fertilizer, poison, and chopping things down. You never know what the place will look like on a given day. On the upside, they've managed to cut down the local locust population, which in three days completely destroyed my front yard.
