Cotton Crop

Yes, indeed there is cotton growing on the old plantation. One of my neighbors has planted a nice cotton plant in their yard and, as all around the South, the crop is coming in

Halloween

The Halloween season has come to Chickasaw, and, as usual, most of the houses are sporting decorations that signal the spooky evening. This is just one of many displays in Chickasaw.

Haile Plantation

One of the nicest things about driving home to Chickasaw Way is the Tower Road entrance to Haile Plantation. If one has never seen it before, the road leading into Haile looks like a drive in the country. The most immediate site is a large pasture, surrounded by a white fence. Inside the fence are beautiful horses. The whole scene looks like something out of a 1940's technicolor movie. This is one of the horses, which I've modified for whimsey's sake.

Century Tower Comes to Chickasaw Way

There are many football fans in the Way. They root for teams ranging from the Big Ten to The Pac Ten to the Southeastern Conference. There are probably even some Seminole fans here. The team that most fans in the neighborhood will be watching on Saturday is, most likely, the Gators.

Gardens

Within the various residences in Chickasaw Way there are small gardens and lawn. They are small because of the design of the neighborhood. Many residents found the proximity of one house to another to be an attractice aspect of the neighborhood. Although one might not define the design as "zero-lot line", the house are nestled very close to each other.In spite of this, many of the houses manage to have very attractive "mini-gardens".

Chickasaw Charm

This is typical of Chickasaw. Beautifully simple and understated. Never grandiose or pompous. Just pure charm. This is also part of the over-all style of the community and lends a lasting quality, one that wears well through the years.
