                             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  In the opinion of management, these financial statements include 
all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the 
Company as of March 31, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows for 
the three-months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.  The Company's results of 
operations during the first three months of the Company's fiscal year are not 
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.  
The financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction 
with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's 1997 Form 
10-KSB.

2.    Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Basic and diluted loss per common share is computed using the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during each period.  Common stock equivalents have 
not been included since the effect of such inclusion would be antidilutive.
                    
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per
share for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997:

4.    Subsequent event - refinancing

The mortgage holder on the Resort property declined to extend the term of the 
note and had initiated foreclosure proceedings.  Management of the Company 
arranged for alternative financing to prevent the foreclosure sale scheduled 
for April 28, 1998. The Company retains ownership of the resort with first and 
second mortgages secured by the property. 



Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this Form 10-QSB regarding the Company's future
prospects or profitability constitute forward-looking statements and as such,
must be considered with caution and with the understanding that various factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such
forward-looking statements.  Such factors include but are not limited to (i) the
ability of the Company to complete a business combination or acquisition as
anticipated, (ii) the securing of financing sufficient to fund such business
combination, acquisition, settlement of outstanding debt and litigation, or the
expansion of the Resort, and/or (iii) change in operating results provided by
the Resort or any newly-acquired operations due to economic or competitive
conditions or otherwise.

General

      The Company is principally engaged in the development, ownership,
marketing and operation of a destination resort community and fishing camp
located on Orange Lake near Ocala, Florida.  Management is currently considering
alternative business activities for the Company which could result in a decision
to sell the resort property.

Results of Operations

Three-month Period Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Three-month Period Ended
March 31, 1997:

      Revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 amounted to
$96,995 compared to $86,942 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997,
reflecting an increase of $10,053. Revenues are comprised of memberships 
paid in full, dues and resort operations.  The increase in revenues reflected 
for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 is a result of improved 
marketing and use of the Company's resort facilities.

      Selling, general and administrative expenses were $273,799 for the three 
months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $618,493 for the three-month period
ended March 31, 1997, representing a decrease of $344,694.  The decrease
is due principally to expenses related to consulting activities in connection 
with business acquisitions in the prior-year period.
 
      During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, $40,040 in
interest expense was charged to operations compared to $9,439 charged to 
interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997, reflecting
an increase of $30,601.  The increase is due principally to the amounts paid
pursuant to notes issued in connection with settlements of liabilities related 
to convertible securities of the Company issued in 1996.

      Net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 was $194,695, 
which represents a decrease in loss of $339,788 compared to the net loss of 
$534,483 for the prior-year period.  The decrease is due principally to 
reduction of expenses related to consulting activities in connection with 
business acquisitions in the prior-year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Liquidity and capital resources are hereinafter discussed in three broad
categories:  operating activities, investing activities and financing
activities.
     
 Operating Activities

      The revised marketing and sales approach, initiated in 1995 in response to
changing interests of the public away from memberships in favor of destination
and special interest resort amenities, has resulted in an increase in cash flows
from operations for the current year, which trend is expected to continue in
future years.

      Cash decreased $103,625 to $17,911 at March 31, 1998 from $121,536 at 
December 31, 1997.  Net cash used for operating activities was $158,782 during
the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 compared to cash used for
operating activities of $42,450 during the three-month period ended March 31, 
1997. The change in cash used for operating activities resulted primarily from a
reduction in accounts receivable and payments related to settlements of 
convertible securities.
<PAGE>
Investing Activities

      During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, there was
$147,058 used for investing activities, compared with $333,541 used for 
investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 1997.  The 
Company's investment in oil and gas exploration is expected to begin providing 
net revenue in the second half of 1998.

Financing Activities

      During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, net cash provided by
financing activities was $202,215, representing an increase of $209,726 over net
cash used in financing activities of $7,511 during the three-month period ended
March 31, 1997.  The increase is a result primarily of the proceeds derived from
a note issued to a related party.
 
      Income from the resort is seasonal and on an annual basis the Company is
required to seek additional financing in order to pay long-term debt obligations
and the resort's ongoing operations, including payroll, creditors and taxes. 
Income from the resort operations is not sufficient to sustain the Company's
operations.  Consequently, the Company has been experiencing a liquidity problem
and must obtain financing in addition to expected revenues from operations in
order to pay its past due obligations and meet its current obligations as they
come due.
