The home adjacent to Doright Manor in the beautiful Lake Yvette neighborhood about eight miles west of Tallahassee is on the market. It’s a lovely place with real southern charm, so I thought I’d give it a little publicity.
Sandy, the owner, takes excellent care of this home, meticulously maintaining its spacious yard. I always gave her a hard time about making me look lazy. Granted, that’s not that difficult.
I love the little gazebo feature on the west side of the property. It makes me want to put on a floral chiffon dress and white gloves for afternoon tea.
I didn’t want to trespass, so I didn’t venture into the backyard, but the home sits just off a finger of Lake Yvette.
Pictured above are some of the vibrant flowers that adorn this property.
Sandy really thought she’d retire out here, but circumstances beyond her control necessitated a move into Tallahassee. It’s a terrific place for a retired couple.
Studly Doright and I are great neighbors. We don’t throw wild parties, and we don’t have any barking dogs. Plus, we’re fairly amusing, and we have a dock.
Come take a look!
Peace, people.

You’re in Florida? Lovely yard – Lush lawns are difficult to grow that well in Florida.

We’re in the panhandle area, which is basically South Georgia. As long as the oak trees and pine trees aren’t too thick a nice lawn is possible.

It is very nice, especially compared to my city apartment. Bit far to travel to work, sadly.

It’s a lovely area, but our county doesn’t have great schools. That’s why it’s perfect for a retired couple.

Oh, my kids would have an answer to that. School? Who needs it? (I said they’d have an answer, but now I see that what they’d really have is two questions.)

There’s always home schooling.
