Back to Peace River

Our back yard. Stayed on the river for three weeks once we came back from Pine Island. Guess I should have posted those pictures first... oh, well. As you can see, it is peaceful down here and I think we were high enough up where the Alligators didn't want to bother us.

I think Sammy the cat and Sassy the Corgi are enjoying it too.

Sanibel

Getting there was fun... where we were at Pine Island, it would have only been 5 miles via a boat... It takes about 35 miles and over an hour by car. Oh, and the toll bridge... $6.00.
That's Sanibel in the distance overlooking a very nice beach. Too bad we didn't have more time to hang out on the beach... it looked so nice. When you park you car, you have to buy a ticket... $2.00 for 15 minutes... yes, you heard right. And it generally takes that long just to walk out to the beach.... If the beach police don't see the ticket on your windshield, you could be fined $50.00. Would I go back... sure.

The Island Cow

This is the place we ate lunch the day we spent on Sanibel. Great food .... long wait.

Sanibel Island

We finally made it here the end of January. A word to the wise... plan on more than one day to see what's here. We didn't get to see as much as we thought we would, but then again there's always next year !
