Yep, born & raised 3rd generation, grew up in Pre-Disney Orange County, when Orlando was not a big town, you could go dove hunting in the TG LEE dairy farm fields on Orange Avenue.
A boy in those times could run endlessly through the woods with a .22 rifle in hand, camp where you wished, never worry about getting in trouble.
Seems like a better time to me.
Endless orange groves, cattle, and a few defense contractors and NASA were the big business in town.
Still wouldn’t live anywhere else.
