Sometimes inspiration comes from the strangest places. Recently I had the pleasure of joining The News-Press editorial board on a private tour of the Edison & Ford Winter Estates. As a citizen member of the board, this was a real treat because we got to see some things the general public doesn’t – I even got to walk in the houses!

What’s more, is we were told all the incredible labors of love and work that have been going on over the past 9 years on the sites. $12 million and thousands of work hours later, the homes are in excellent condition and the staff is working to make both sites a place of learning and growth, just as both men had originally planned them to be.

So, what can we take away from this? I left inspired by the horticulture and beauty of the Estates as well as the sheer genius that once lived and walked those same grounds.

Enjoy some of the photos I took and may they inspire you to do great things.
