OK after my Hubby read my last post, he commented to me that I did not say anything about the little restaurant that we ate at in Winter Garden. It is called the Moon Cricket Grill and what was interesting about this restaurant was the bit of history in making it. It was originally a grocery store and I am sorry I can not remember the circa however, it has the original pine floors and tin ceiling. The wood around the restaurant was milled and finished here in Florida. There are stain glass pieces in the front that are from a church. The table tops are the bowling alley lanes from the navel base here in Orlando that closed. The light fixtures are from Rosie O'Grady's at Church Street Station which in no longer there as well. When my parents came to visit, we always went to Rosie O'Grady's, my Father loved it there with the Dixieland Jazz Band, Red Hot Mama who always acknowledged him and the can can dancers. It was sad when they closed. OH and there is a giant propeller suspended from the ceiling that was from a blimp. The food and service was good and I am sure we will go back.
OK I was able to download a couple of pictures but seem to have stalled at that, my computer takes a long time and never the picture never completely downloads.
