Day 303: Bokeelia, FL Breezy and cool! I had to sit out of the wind this morning, or find some long sleeves! It seems like the weather got more pleasant here since I got my haircut. Hmmmm. If every day in Bokeelia could be like this, I could probably live here. Then again, maybe not.... Continue Reading →

Day 302: Bokeelia, FL Cloudy and warm. We walk to the Bokeelia fishing pier at least twice a day. Besides seeing ospreys, pelicans, dolphins, ibis and lizards regularly, I get to see these.

Day 301: Bokeelia, FL Initially cool, then quickly cloudy, humid, hot. Today was a Pokémon Go event day, so we drove 11 miles to Matlacha (pronounced Matt LaShay) to play the game. On our way we stopped at this fruit stand which advertises tropical fruits. Two people told us that they sell unusual foods there,... Continue Reading →

Day 300: Bokeelia, FL Cloudy, cooler, chance of rain. We went to the four corners of Pine Island to get some fishing lures and electrical supplies. It gave us a chance to try Pine Island Pizza. Their pizza is pretty good.

Day 296: Bokeelia, FL Windy and warm. On our walk to the pier this morning we saw a dolphin in real shallow water swimming around. All of a sudden, it bolted towards the beach, to even shallower water. I haven’t seen anything like it. It made quite a swoosh in the water. I hope it... Continue Reading →

Day 295: Bokeelia, FL Sunny, humid and warm. We had a big Zoom party for my brother Jim’s birthday. It was so nice to see so many nieces and nephews. This is the fishing pier we walk to twice a day. See the golf cart? If you step on the pier, that golf cart will... Continue Reading →

Day 294: Bokeelia, FL Sunny and hot. We had an afternoon boat ride. Tom saw a manatee come up for air. It was the first time we (he) had seen a manatee in this area of Florida. Another new, thing for us was the horseshoe crabs. As we rode by a small beach we saw... Continue Reading →
