Inverness, Florida

 We decided to take a day trip Thursday to see what the town of Inverness, Florida had to offer.
Nancy and I drove though Inverness years ago and stopped just long enough to see the lake that was called "Cooters Pond".


                                               

We were glad that we took the time to visit this town that it had the old Court House still standing with the clock at the top that had the right time and sounded off that it was 1:00.




Here was a nice shop that had lots of things to choose from.

I noticed the name (Chronicle) which sounded like to me that maybe at one time it was a newspaper publishing building. I went in to ask the owner if it used to be newspaper office and sure enough it was.  




I always like to see the old theaters still in use now a days.



Looks like they added a fountain in Cooters Pond since Nancy and I saw it years ago.




Nancy making her way out to get a nice view of the lake or pond.





It was a hot day and extra hard on Nancy.




Our baby daughter Sherry had to sit with Mama.




With all the walking and looking it was time for us to eat and we chose Cedar River Restaurant for our place to eat.




Sherry and Nancy had the fried chicken with fries and Cole slaw.




While I had the Catfish, Hush Puppies and Cole Slaw.
All three of us enjoyed our meal and after eating we were more then ready to make our 63 miles back home.



We took the back roads home and enjoyed looking at the farmland and pastures.


It was indeed a good day.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Always nice to get out once in a while to break the routines we get into.
Dinner looked tasty.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
