Fancy But Reasonably Priced!
I stumbled on this place after pulling an
all-nighter providing contract transportation in the South Florida area.
My last trip ended in the quaint town of Wellington, Fl., which I
first learned of while researching National Cemeteries for Veterans.
The South Florida National Cemetery is located nearby off State Road
7 in Lake Worth, another quiet town. I dropped off many other riders
in Wellington and thus was able to look the town over after my Internet
research. It was everything that I imagined in terms cleanliness, well-manicured
lawns, pristine shopping areas, and friendly residences. Those amenities;
however, come with a pretty hefty price tag which for the moment is out of my
price range. I am talking about the median price of homes in the $500K
range.
The area is also well known for horse farms
and shows, in fact, I dropped a nice couple off for this really big show off State
Road 7 that I collected way over in Lantana off A1A near the ocean. I forgot where they traveled from but
do remember that it was not the State of Florida. This show was
so popular that they had to employ shuttle buses to transport the guests back
and forth from their vehicles. I love horses but ironically have never ridden
one nor have I petted one. I came close to petting one at the Brattonsville
Plantation in South Carolina but chickened out because of the mean look
that he gave me. Unlike dogs, horses rarely show emotion. Emmy Award-winning
actor Glynn Turman agreed during my exclusive
interview with him at the National
Black Theatre Festival in Winston-Salem, NC.
