Church stained glass windows



I really like the stained glass windows at the First Baptist Church of Clermont, FL.
My little Kodak camera has a little problem photographing certain colors, so this window was quite a test for it.

Hunt's End Restaurant






Sadly, the Hunt's End Restaurant has gone out of business.

That's right. The Hunt's End Restaurant has well, ended.

Mimi's Cafe


Mimi's Cafe


Mimi's has the most photographic plates of food anywhere.
Their meals are beautiful and delicious.




I love their sense of color in their meals.
Remember, colorful foods are more healthy!

This was one of my family's favorite restaurants.

My mother in law loves to show people photos from this place.
