First stop was the Atlantic Center for the Arts in New Smyrna Beach. The center was a surprise artist colony smack in the middle of some Florida scrub and home to one of the best LB's we have ever found!
DeLeon Springs has been on the to-do list for 2 years now, yay, we finally made it! Trivia, back in the 50's Sunshine was a big draw....No not sunshine in the sky, but Sunshine the water skiing elephant? Skiing pachyderms are no longer an attraction, thank goodness...The big draw now is a restaurant, the Old Spanish Sugar Mill where you cook your pancakes on the griddle right in the middle of the table. Mason and I interviewed one of the waitresses and turns out they do have a GF batter available, double yay!
DeLeon Spring temps are 72 year round and even though this is April, we had a 93 degree day which made for a perfect combo!
Last stop was Lake George SF in Astor and an excellent example of why we love LBing so. This park was way off the beaten path...On this particular afternoon, after driving down a 2.5 mile piece of it, we ended up on a peninsula jutting out into the St Johns River. 
A perfect day except for the time where I was crying at the gas pump...
