Make sure you save room for dessert. Their cakes are fabulous and they can't get more than six or seven slices out of the cake. The portions are huge!

You can't miss the Bubble Room. When you get towards the north end of Captiva, you will come to a 4 way stop. At the NE corner, you will see a pick fence with bubbles painted on it. That's it. If you want a nice look at the Gulf and maybe a beverage before or after lunch. Make a left at the 4 way stop go a couple of blocks to the end. You will be at the beach and the Mucky Duck. Great sunset location!

Crap don't tell me I missed it! Was doing a photo shoot today with a Ford GT, Camaro RS, 3 Vettes, and some other cars...

Myers, Sanibel, and Captiva; great place to visit and relax..........Tom

I just came back fro Sanibel/Captiva last night. Was there Saturday and Sunday (5-20/21-06) to spread my dad's ashes in the gulf.

He was born and raised there, and the family heritage go back to the 1800's there. The GREEN FLASH restaurant is on the property where my uncle T.M. Wiles bar and grill, "Timmy's nook" once stood. The property across the street (the little cracker box house) was my aunts where I spent a LOT of time during the summer.

My great grandmother was the first postmaster there in the post office on Captiva which is now a cottage (Post office "sweet").

We went out to Redfish pass and did the memorial there (Thanks go out to Dave Jensen and the Jensen Brothers Marina and out skipper LARS for the comped boat and skipper! )

Anyway, didn't mean to get off track here.

The trees on captiva are doing ok. It's thinned out a little, but still very beautiful.
We ate at the Bubble Room for dinner saturday and at the Green Flash for lunch on Sunday.

Stayed at the Island Inn (Highly recommended for a peacful retreat) on Sanibel.

I'll do a little write up on the whole trip in the next couple of days.

Sanibel and Captiva......God little piece of paradise on earth......

Shadow, condolences for the loss of your father. Lost mine not so long ago. Dad is one soul in our life that can't be replaced. Sounds like the memorial was what you and he wanted. Very nice, I wasn't so lucky to have such a nice memorial, but that's for another forum or thread. Anyway, sorry to hear of your loss.
Very interesting personal history of you and your family on Captiva/Sanabel. I love it down there and it remains to be one of my favorite getaways. Great place! The best to you and your family!..........Tom
