Speaking of antiqued 1873s, here is a Gunbroker auction for an original 1873 in the white.  It has been modified to shoot .44 Special and they want less than 1K for it.  See it here: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=391683554

The Mormon Church, use to be the largest land owning organization within the State of Florida. All was intended for raising and feeding of cattle.
I do not know if that still hold true or not.
(This has little to do with the original posting, however, it is better than s pissing match.)

PJ, nice open country, should be great for a fast ride via horseback............I see a rise of land in the distance........having never been to the interior of Florida I did not know Florida had any high hills!

We have Mountains ...There is Space Mountain, Matterhorn, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain & Big Rock Candy Mountain
Not to mention Mt. Dora.... ;D

But I was referring to my photo post of the Deseret Ranch, and yes it's still largest land owning organization within the State of Florida.

I believe it was Ranch 13 made the left turn  :)

Back to 73's  ;)

griswold,

The highest ground in the central Florida is Iron Mountian at 365 ft. above sea level, near Lake Wales.
However, standing in the grass lands, one can see what looks to be hillocks off in the distance. These are tree covered low islands call "Hammocks" down here in Florida.
It is also important to note that Mormon owned land is not all in Florida.
Yes, lets go back to the '73's.
