HOWARD AND LUCILLE BABBITT PICKING APPLES FROM THEIR ORCHARD FOR THE LAST TIME, SPRINKLE CREEK.

The Babbitts left Orlando, Florida, in the early 1970s when their orange grove that had been in Howard’s family for three generations was swallowed by development surrounding Disneyworld. They planted apples and raised their children on Sprinkle Creek. We bought rocking chairs at their yard sale before they moved because of I-26.
