Deen Mountain:  

Life Hi 1966 Classmates: It's been a long time since 1986, the 20th reunion. Hope to hear from all of my 1966 classmates out there! Currently living in Palmdale, FL since 2002. It's a small, rural outpost located between Lake Placid and Moore Haven, FL on Rt. 27. I'm divorced, and my son, Eric lives in Clearwater.

Palmdale is one of the last frontiers in Florida. I currently live a unique lifestyle in my Itasca RV /motorhome (full timer, I'm called) at a beautiful RV park and ranch on the edge of the Everglades. There was an old hanger with several small aircraft and a 1,200 ft. grass airstrip, but all were lost during Hurricane Wilma. So much for those fun, barnstorming weekends. Palmdale is surrounded by Lykes' 300,000 acre cattle and citrus ranch, and Fisheating Creek Wildlife Management Area. I stay very busy with mt. biking, kayaking, hiking, ham radio, photography, writing, and protecting the Fisheating Creek State Park /WMA. It's the most pristine wilderness area left in Flor...Expand for more
