Florida Part 1

This weekend was my friend Mike's wedding in his, now, wife's home city, Auberndale, FL. Natasha and I flew down Friday evening with a 4-hr layover in Philedelphia. To kill time there, we walked around the airport shops and chatted with some good wine & food at a wine tasting restaurant. First on our list Saturday were the Hollis Gardens in Lakeland. They were free, though not very big. The best part was to just enjoy the Florida weather. The next stop was the Frank Lloyd Wright architecture of the Florida Southern Univeristy campus. Natasha is very interested in him and likes seeing his work wherever she can. The buildings were built in the late 50's and could use some maintenance. The architecture is quite intricate with small, square, glass blocks in the walls (all the dark spots). The covered walkways were only 6.5 ft tall.
