| 0:00.0 | Lake County, Florida is beautiful. Local farms and tree groves are scattered throughout rolling hills. |
| 0:07.7 | Covelstone streets are lined with these quaint boutiques and restaurants, giving the kind of charm that you can only find in small towns. |
| 0:16.7 | Spanish moss hangs from the branches of live oak trees, and more than a thousand lakes provide a serene and picturesque landscape at every turn. |
