Up a Mt. Without the Internet



Winter Park from left to right: Park Avenue (the main drag), a very cool cemetery & my experimental photography, the in-town train tracks, a residential street with the drippy oaks, an example of the kind of houses.


Forgive me for not writing last night, but I was internet-less. Normally this wouldn't be a problem when one is vacationing, but I feel a great obligation to keep those of you that stop by this blog to tell you what's going on.

I was staying at the Lakeside Inn, a very old hotel in My. Dora. I shared my room with a ladybug and some unusual looking flying/crawling black insects, but no internet provider. Well, that's not exactly true - for $9.95 per night I could have Comcast high speed. I was shocked when I tried to connect and was asked to pay up. So I called the front desk and asked if it was really true that above and beyond the exorbitant room charge, I had to pay for internet service. The rather uppity desk clerk said it was true, and didn't bat a verbal eyelash when I told her this was the very first time I had run into this phenomenon - even my exasperated sigh didn't get a ruffle.


I am now back at Winter Garden, and enjoying the free internet. I will post about Mt. Dora after my nap!
