Swampy's Florida

A stop along Lake Down in Windermere finds cartoonist Charles Treadwell and what he likes most about Florida: Rollins College in Winter Park.

Rollins College is a beautiful private college and can be toured, but do call first. The college season can find a very crowded parking lot. Best to park over in Downtown Winter Park and walk over.
Here’s where Rollins College is:
1000 Holt Ave, Winter Park, 32789
Phone: (407) 646-2000

The Cornell Fine Arts Museum is within the campus and well worth a visit with a permanent gallery and traveling exhibits. The museum has a fantastic view of Lake Virgina, so bring your camera for that.
Here’s where the Cornell Museum is:
Building No. 303, Rollins College, 1000 Holt Ave, Winter Park, FL 32789

Rollins is in Winter Park, just north of Orlando. It has always been the place to go to stroll Park Avenue and shop or get a meal. Central Park is in the midst of Downtown Winter Park and a great place for a peaceful walk or a picnic.
