It December already!? I guess. What a great summer, nice and warm and no " big blows". Good for the islands, the gulf and the east coast. We spent most of the time with the grandkids at the beach, big suprise there, and a few adventures.

Our trips to St. Croix were enlightening and enjoyable. We were looking for a place to build our little bungalow retreat. We saw a few good sites, but the island just seems a little too big for that island feel. The people are friendly the shops had all we would need, rum, rice, and beans. But there were alot of people. Still have not ruled it out.

We also took a trip down to Sanibel & Captiva. This is a really neat place. I had heard of the fantastic shelling at Sanibel on The Travel Channel, so I said let's go. And we did. We had fun!! If you haven't read any of Randy Wayne White's books of Doc Ford's adventures in this area you really should. The discriptions are right-on and the stories exciting. Doc Ford's Bar and grill is good also.

We then took the water taxi/ferry to Key West, what a good time. Calm!!! seas good bar I would recomend it. Good Summer all-in-all!!! gotta figure out how to add more photos.
