It is still pretty wide open. A nice ride!
OK, OK, the meat and potatoes from today!
OK guys, there was a slight change of plans, but I still got a road trip in! We got a late start so we decided to go somewhere a little closer. Took a 2+ hour trip up to Boca Grande and Gasparilla Island. It was a nice run. Burnt a tank of fuel! (I got about 22mpg on the hwy @ 82mph again today)
It was a pretty cool day. Both towns are just sleepy little coastal (Gulf of Mexico and Charlotte Harbour) fishing villages. Here are some pics...
In back of me on the way up there:
Downtown Boca Grande:
Where we had lunch--Grouper sandwiches!!! Thumbsup.jif Mmmmmm!
Yes, that is a real Tarpon over the counter, caught right there in Boca Grande Pass, they have a huge Tarpon tournament there every year.
I thought this was a cool photo op, under the Banyan trees:
Bad @ss Lamborghini Reventon on the way home:
We will be heading up to the Green Home in 2 weeks. Next weekend: Key West trip! I can't wait to go over the 7 mile bridge in the Z and get some good pics and maybe some video!
