From the Seabreeze Bridge, storms roll into Daytona Beach..

Swampy took a new trail in Pine Lake Park in very west Lake County today. The main trail is just over a mile long. I’ll be placing a more involved post on my this site in the next few weeks.
Swampy’s Matchbook Wednesday: Seacomber & Surfcomber, Miami Beach

Here’s a matchbook for the Seacomber and Surfcomber in Miami Beach. Seems to be from the 1940s. Both have been combined as the Surfcomber at 1717 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach. Click here to learn more or plan a visit or stay.
If you have any memories of this location, please leave some in the comments area below.
The two structures still sit on Collins Avenue today. Here’s what they look like now:

Here’s Swampy near the Inverness Courthouse steps tonight at storms rolled in to this part of Citrus County.
A view of Lake Padgett off US 41 in Land O’Lakes. Lake Padgett connects to the east with Saxon Lake. All of which has many boaters, skiers, fishermen and jet skiers busy during weekends.
I was told that the southern end of Lake Padgett sinks 25 feet deep by an employee of Hungry Harry’s. The employee’s 6 foot tall friend has free dived that part of the lake and measured it.
Lake Padgett Park on the east side of the lake gives boat and picnic access. However, the park is gated and has signage warning only certain residents of the area may use the park. Drove all the way around the lake best I could considering I found myself in a private neighborhood that has streets that don’t connect all the way through with public roads. Been around connecting Saxon Lake and seem to recall that is also only available through private access, too.
By the way, Hungry Harry’s is s very popular bar-b-q spot that has enjoyed great success for 22 years. The restaurant sits snug in between US 41 and Lake Padgett. I’ll have a separate post for them down the road.
