May 3rd. 2007 – Sand Lake!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on May.08, 2007, under Florida Outdoors!
I was over by Big Sand Lake in South Orange County. I looked at the smaller sinkhole to the southeast of Sand Lake and sketched a part of it. Lots of foliage and the water looked very healthy. Much unlike the condos and townhouses that have been packed around Big Sand Lake. The developers dredged and filled an unnatural jetty and built upon it. The jetty can’t be more than 200 feet wide. Those that got suckered into buying apartments there had better hope the sinkholes under them don’t reopen. They should be praying for hurricanes to avoid a sinking of their home values!
