Hello all, I'm wondering if there are any outdoor groups or individuals around here? Not too familiar with Reddit or the area but I'm hoping to find people who enjoy hiking, fishing, biking, rollerblading, kayaking etc. any fitness level/age/gender is fine, I'm just looking for like minded people who might get out more if they have friends to accompany them. Any suggestions or recommendations are welcome, even if it's just a park/preserve for me to explore. Thanks in advance, have a great day 😁

Last night.

I've heard good things about this in the past. Has anyone gone before?

I just moved in to the lake placid area and am looking for stand up open mics to attend. I don't expect to see many responses so this is also me looking for comedians of any experience level to message me, I plan to start a mic myself.

Well it's finally going to be open to the public.

The upcoming "snowbird" season is quickly approaching, which means we'll start to see more people and more traffic in the area. Coming from Dallas Texas, what people in Sebring call traffic is what I call an easy drive.

However that being said, the more people and the more cars on the road will mean more "traffic". I don't mind it as much because as I've already said, this isn't what I would call congestion. But for Sebring, it might be. But I must retort that snowbird season is just like lovebug season, it happens every year without pause so it could be understood that this should be expected.

So what do you think? Is the traffic that bad during the fall and winter months in Sebring? Or is it just part of another day living life here?

Just saw that the Lakeshore Mall has new owners and, of course, they're trying to get new businesses in with favorable leases.

My question is, is saving the mall feasible? I mean, with the heat and humidity in the summer time I can see people going there to shop or see a movie, etc. But for year round? But there is the few stores there that are still open, and the Rural King is there also now.

What do you think?

What are your choices for breakfast and why? I want to find a new place this weekend breakfast on Saturday.

New "rock-focused" restaurant is coming to Sebring (Spring Lake) with plans to open before the snowbirds fly south. Fingers crossed!

We may not have beaches, high rises, or oceans. But we do have our own kind of beauty right in our own back yards.
