Why NSB for lunch? 

I think because it is on the way to Dave's place.

That makes sense then. :greenthumb:

I was going to suggest somewhere closer to Sugar Mill Gardens if you guys weren't going to NSB anyway. I won't be attending, but hope you guys have a good time.

I'm looking forward to the trip.  It will be the first time I've been at Dave's place in NSB.

During the first stop of our day, we donated a Bismarckia nobilis to Sugar Mill Gardens.  You can see our president, Dave Hall, standing with one of our tour guides for the day before they place the donated palm in the ground:

After our lunch break, it was off to Dave's place on the waterfront at New Smyrna Beach.  The next three pictures are the palms and other plants that greet you when you make your way down the driveway.

After making your way to the dock, you are treated with a coconut and a view:
