Finally we can take a trip!

Well, family has been through quite a bit this year. No details but you can imagine. Anyway after a 3 month pause on life we Head out for a local trip for Labor day weekend into mid week. Then in October we hit South Seas Plantation, Pink Shell in Fort Myers Beach, and then backtrack up to Tween Waters in Captiva.

Done this all before and took it kinda for granted. This time will be a bit appreciated. And needed.

Tanks are full. Don't care what we burn. I'll fill her back up and be glad I can.

No stop in Cabbage Key?

Glad you're out and about. I just agreed to bring a 55C from CT to FL next month. It'll be nice running a big Hatt again.

Good man. I could never pass that place up.

Hit Star Fish Company if you ever get up to Cortez. Seafood Shack will allow you to dock your boat for free as long as you tell them you'll have a drink or ten. Easy walk to Star from there and worth every step.

Have a great trip. Sounds like you are here in SW Florida.

We've been to Pink Shell and Useppa in the last 30 days and it has been all great times.

This weekend we will take friends to the Boca Grande sandbar for a music festival. There will be three bands on a barge on Saturday. Did this on Memorial Day and it was a blast.

If you have time, swing by. We'll be anchored out about 3/4 mile south of the sandbar.

Look for us on Katerina (58 LRC).

Have been to Seafood shack a few times. Yes, tip nice and plug in! No other charges. We throw $$ at the restaurant there to pay our way. Starfish was closed the day we tried to go last time. Probably going next week after a couple days at Twin Dolphin. Got our little electric scooters to travel around.

We won't be down that way until October. But we have a similar concert in Madeira Beach right near my house called "Boatstock".

At Seafood Shack now. As luck would have it Star Fish is closed for 2 weeks. Did have a fantastic lunch across the bridge at Bridge Tenders Inn.
