The Bourlay Historic Nature Park is in Lake County Florida near Leesburg. It is made up of about 88 acres of lake-front land. The trails are not long, but this little nature park is very peaceful and green. There are trails that lead to overlooks of the lake and others that loop around the park. There was no one else there when I went and it took me about an hour and a half to cover the whole park. If you are in the area and have some time to spare this is a great little nature preserve to photograph.

This was the fourth year we have gone to the Modern Phoenix home tour. This year the tour focused on the east Phoenix mid-century modern neighborhood of Marion Estates near 44th St. and Camelback. But it also stretched a bit beyond the boundaries of Marion Estates and included two Frank Lloyd Wright designed homes, a definite highlight of this years tour. Frank Lloyd Wright wintered in Arizona and brought his entire school with him to Taliesin West each year.

The Tampa Museum of Art sits in downtown Tampa, FL and is a great work of art in and of itself. Designed by Stanley Saitowitz, Natoma Architects, construction was completed and the museum opened in 2010.
Built in 1956 for the H. C. Price Company, the Price Tower is one of only two Frank Lloyd Wright designed high rise buildings still in existance. At 19 stories the building was designed as a multiple use building with offices, retail and apartments. Today it is still a multifunction high rise being home to the Price Tower Arts Center, a museum of art, architecture, and design; Inn at Price Tower; Copper Restaurant and Bar, and the Wright Place museum store.
Bartlesville, OK may not be where you would expect to find a building like the Price Tower, much less a masterpiece by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright. But what seems like a small Midwestern railroad town is really home to major corporations such as Phillips 66. And in Bartlesville, the Price Tower does not compete with a crowded skyline. It is the skyline.
