Through the car window

I've wanted to make a little post about our neighborhood, especially for the people in Finland reading this, since it's not that interesting for local people. I don't have good pictures, because they've all been taken through the car window. I'm planning on getting some more pictures soon, maybe even step out the air conditioned car for a few shots. :P I'd like to get some pictures of random people's yards that are looking really pretty this time of the year.

Chris said it the best: "Florida is a really beautiful place, but only to look at from behind a glass window". So here we go, photos through the window. .. ... And no, it's not all super pretty, it's just random photos of our neighborhood.

To start with I have a few photos taken from the road that we drive from our house toward downtown. We live 5-10 minutes from downtown, depends on traffic.

This is a pretty typical looking road away from city centers. Nothing to look at really. 

The same road a minute later, getting more toward downtown of our central Florida town. 

This is a little closer dowtown again. Taken on a weekend morning. Usually  traffic would be a lot worse. 

I don't have photos of the dowtown right now. It's mostly banks anyway. A few restaurants and art galleries etc. 

The next photos are of some houses that are around the lake we live close to. They all have a nice lakeview and I bet some pretty rich people live there. Not the best photos because they were taken from the moving car. 

The next photos are of the closest little shopping center to us. It has a Publix supermarket and some other businesses we never go to. The cool thing is that it's the shopping center that was used in the movie "Edward Scissorhands". 

And to end with, toward the south side of our town, my work place and some cow pastures. I see a lot more of them than I ever see the beach. :P

My office. Sorry for the bad picture. 

Bunch of nothingness. It's a rather new road and I have a feeling the fields will be gone in ten years. 

So that's it for now.. oh, wait.. what's this picture doing here?!

:D
