Here’s Swampy with a huge wall size photographic display of Orlando in the private Citrus Club in Orlando. Swampy was there for the monthly Orlando Remembered meeting. Orlando Remembered puts up fantastic displays of Orlando’s history and is part of the Orange County Regional History Center. Swampy’s Rob Smith has been a member of Orlando Remembered since 1986.

Not far from here was the Jackie Gleason theater which also has a matchbook and will be featured here next Wednesday.
This photo was taken by Patty Register along Fisheating Creek in Glades County. Patty and her husband Allen Register own Gatorama along US27 in Palmdale and run Fisheating Creek Outpost that provides access to Fisheating Creek.
