"Where Liberty is, there is my country." ~ Ben Franklin - American Statesman (1706 - 1790) ~

Crane's Roost Park is a surprisingly popular place to hang out in Altamonte Springs. The upscale, 37-acre lakeside park features a mile- long lighted boardwalk perfect for running, hiking or blading down; a floating stage and 900- seat amphitheatre for concerts and other outdoor shows; covered pavilions, picnic tables and cozy shade trees perfect for outdoor lunches; and an overall atmosphere of peace and beauty -- all of which draws dozens of local residents and business folk out to the park daily. Many of the town's major events and festivals are located here, and the annual Fourth of July fireworks display at Crane's Roost is always a spectacular sight. With this park so convenient and accessible to the community, there's no reason not to spend more time outdoors. Eat lunch outside, take a daily walk down by the water or simply sit under a tree and read. There's so much beauty and tranquility just waiting to be explored. . . and at Crane's Roost Park it's all waiting for you in the company of other community members. -- Stacy Noyes, City Guide

From Wikipedia

"Bonjour" is a French word meaning "hello" but the word is actually composed of two words (bon=good and jour=day).

Bonjour can also refer to:

Bonjour (software), an Apple program which implements Zeroconf
Bonjour (newspaper), free newspaper in France
Bonjour (cycling team), sponsored by newspaper mentioned above
Bonjour (retailer), retail chain in Hong Kong
Bonjour (fashion)
Bonjour Stradivarius
Laurence BonJour, contemporary epistemologist and professor of Philosophy at the University of Washington
Bonjour, a crude cartoon about a French person in need of some underpants. (wow - lol)

The fun part of taking food photos is that I get to sample the subject ~
