 Nope,
don't wanna go back east on I-4. |
 At
first, I though that traveling US 27 would be mistake because of all the
traffic I encountered, but it got better as I kept going south. |
 The
US Routes that wouldn't die!!!! |
 South
US 27. |
 If
Minnesota is the Land of 10,000 Lakes, then Florida must be the Land of
9,999 Lakes. |
 Lookin'
pretty Gladesy. |
 Approaching
FL 60. |
 A
short little dance with US 98, before it heads east to West Palm. |
 Here's
FL 17, which kinda parallels US 27 for a while. |
 It
actually crosses US 27 a few times, ending and starting again sorta. |
 I
went on FL 64 WB for a mile to get Hardee County. |
 The
lakes rub right up against US 27. |
 I
can't tell you how many Eckerd's I saw on this drive. They're probably
all now CVS, as CVS took over the Eckerd name. |
 Wow,
a slight hill in Florida!! |
 I
totally don't even know what town this is. |
 The
further south in Central Florida you go, the less development there is. |
 I
think think think but am not sure, that this is the intersection with FL 29,
which goes to Immokalee. |
 A
whole lotta nothin' out here west of Lake Okeechobee. |
 FL
80 West goes to a town called La Belle, and then to Ft. Meyers. |
 Coming
into Clewiston, right on the shores of Lake Okeechobee. |
 Kind
of a neat-o bridge here. |
 You
can see the flat agricultural lands in the distance. |
 Now
abouts in Belle Glade. |
 Stinky
old Jimmie Johnson won the race right about here, where a rainbow formed
over the Everglades. |
 Here's
US 27 approaching I-75 in Broward County. |
 The
camera got blurry for Broward County, but this is now I-75 at Arvida
Parkway. |
 Almost
at the huge stack interchange with FL Toll 869 and I-595. |
 Stay
left on I-75 in order to make a sharp curve to the right. It confused
me at the time. I-75 will enter the Broward sprawl in about a mile and
a half. |
That's all folks!!!! |
