My friend lives in Poinciana which is just the other side of the St. Charles/ Bailey Trail intersection and is 1.7 miles away.
Surprised it takes that long Tom. From my house on Abbey (by way of Pennecamp) it is just under 4 miles to LSL. But I guess with stop and starts it might take 12-14 min. In any event Buttonwood isn't as far 'out there' as many think it is. The far western reaches of Buttonwood might be another mile or so.
