Cold front pushing thru the Farms now

Here in Jupiter Farms we live in Big Sky country.  So when foul weather approaches we can see it coming from a distance.

Jupiter Farms cold front approaching

This winter we have had exceptionally warm temperatures.  In fact, the high today was predicted to be 81.  But that was before this cold front came through.  When we get a cold front the states to our north sometimes get tornadoes.  

Last winter we had exceptionally cold weather and we saw a lot of cold damage to our tropical vegetation.  Still, cold for us is not cold by northern standards.  So if the temperature drops into the 50's or 60's it's really OK and usually returns to the 70's by day three.

Then it is back to the golf courses and beaches...which is exactly why we live here.  I have lived in Jupiter and enjoyed the beaches for 22 years.  Jupiter Farms is the hidden jewel in Palm Beach County and yet only 15 minutes from the ocean.

Riverbend Park in Jupiter Farms: 1838 Loxahatchee Battlefield Commemoration

Just west of Jupiter and Jupiter Country Club is the nearly 1,000 acre County Park called Riverbend Park.  The park includes the headwaters of the Loxahatchee River, one of two Federally Designated Wild & Scenic Rivers in Florida.  It also has several miles of shell rock road open to hikers and bikers and where each month on the full moon the park holds a full moon bike ride.

Canoe Outfitters rents canoes and kayaks or you can bring your own and work you way down the River, past enormous cypress trees, over several weirs, down to Trapper Nelson's old camp and then on to Jonathan Dickinson State Park.  You can join CO and they will pick you up in the Park and return you to Riverbend.  A trip down this river is like a trip back in time.

One of the other annual events held in the Park is the Commemoration of the 1838 Battle sponsored by the Loxahatchee Battlefied Preservationists.  This year, the event is being held Sunday, Jan 16 from 9 to 3.

Here is the video from last year.



It's a great family event held under majestic live oaks.  Plan to come out for a day of fun, see the Park, and when you are done, pick up some great authentic Mexican food at Guacamole just west of the Park in Sierra Square.  Then take a ride through Jupiter Farms.

Jupiter Farms: A 2-minute walking tour

Jupiter Farms is a dedicated equestrian area west of the Town of Jupiter.  Home sites here are 1.25 acres and larger. People here quarter and ride horses and enjoy the freedom form HOA rules that plague our gated communities.

Some months back, I made this video of Jupiter Farms real estate and lifestyle.



It got hundreds of visits on You Tube and while anyone can make a driving tour, I thought you might enjoy a walking tour. My wife and I took a holiday walk and I shot this so you can really see what life is like here in Jupiter Farms.

Jupiter Farms: A mid-winter rainstorm

Here in Jupiter Farms, winter is supposed to be our dry season.  However, last year we had some severe rainstorms that I filmed and added to my channel on You Tube.   Last week, we had another and when it rains this hard I just have to get the camera out and film it.  So here it is...it's short so enjoy.
