It's Sunday and raining but warm. This area of Florida is one of our favourites. We walk and run the beach every morning and watch the dolphins swimming about 100 yards out. It's magical. The beach is even longer than we thought with beautiful fine white sand. We found an amazing golf course about 10 miles down the road. $35.oo includes cartwith GPS and a cooler full of ice for your drinks. We golfed on Friday and again yesterday. It is in a new subdivision that was probably affected by the economy, only about 7 houses and all for sale. I would compare this course to Myrtle Beach courses. Lots of water, sand and wasteland...beautifully landscaped and one of the nicest resaurants and best stocked pro shops so far. The weather was perfect both days on the course. One Friday we golfed with Ed from Honey Harbour ON. He is staying at an RV park up the road and just arrived from Texas. He and his wife go to Texas every year and love it. On Friday the fellow in the trailer next to us was going to Apalachicola(small fishing town about 10 miles to the west)to buy shrimp off the boats. He picked up 2 lbs of shrimp@ $3 a lb for us and we had shrimp lingine for dinner. I have not tasted shrimp as fresh...yummy. I hope we can do that again in New Orleans. Today we are heading off to Tallahassee shopping (about 40 miles away).
