The one titled "Former Sales Center", that's Spanish Springs right? What happened to the sales center?

Main sales center is now at Lake Sumter.

All terrific photos! Now I have yet another club I want to join, and we haven't even arrived yet! ::)
Thank you for sharing these - I am already forwarding them to relatives and friends who have probably heard enough already about TV from us, but what can you say after looking at these pics!

Golfnut, I knew that Sumter was the main sales center, but Spanish Springs was also a sales center. Have they shut it down?

Golfnut - yes that is my house in #74 and above.

ewstanley - I have a Nikon D-70. I bought it in '04 as my daughter was getting married in Hawaii, and I figured it was a worthwhile investment. They've replaced it with the D-80 or the D-40X (both 10 megapixels - mine is only 6 megapixels)

Oooops - I really didn't realize the link would take you to all my pictures. Welcome to my world I guess.

I think SS is still used as a sales center, just a scaled down version, LSL is closer to the newer developments.

Steve,
I remember my first digital was 3 megapixel and I paid a couple of hundred for it.
It is a dinosaur now.
I have replaced it with a 5 megapixel.
I love photography and hope to be able to spend more time taking photos when we move to TV.

Thanks JT. I think that the original plan was to turn the SS building into a hotel when the use as a sales center was over. I'd have been surprised if they had moved forward this early on that plan.
