So I had to try out my new steady sticks wine glass holders during a little impromptu picnic in the park dinner. I picked these up months ago at Whispering Winds and tonight was my first opportunity to use them. I pulled them out of the basket and "first you were all like "whoa," and we were like "whoa," and you were like "whoa ..." These things are gnarly dude! You stick them in the ground and they cradle your wine glass with no spillage!

So we kicked back and relaxed on a blanket while noshing and watching this month's movie in the park, Finding Nemo.

Aaah ... 78 degrees with a cool breeze .... nearly a full moon shining with Jupiter and Venus sparkling near by ... the local high school football marching band drumming faintly in the background ... it's finally starting to feel a little like Fall!

Movie In The Park ...

Last night was one of those moments where I found myself saying, "I love living here!" Brian and I walked home last night from dinner and while we were marching up the hill to our home we saw all kinds of strange blue and purple lights coming from Donnelly Park. As we got closer, we noticed a bunch of people laying on the ground snuggled up in blankets, hovering over hot chocolate and coffee and totally fixated ... on a big screen movie! The flick had just started so we hurried home and grabbed our own blankets and hot beverages and walked back to find our own little spot in the crowd at the outdoor theatre. What a great fall moment with the brisk temperature and clear glittery sky above.

We have lot's of these "Aaah!" moments here in Mount Dora. So, starting January 1st we are going to blog every day to catelogue our experiences and 365 things we love about this town.
