BEACHES...BEACHES...BEACHES...LOVE IT!

We are still in Naples Florida enjoying the warm weather, blue skies & beaches. We celebrated Thanksgiving with a dinner organized by the campground. They furnished the turkey & ham and everyone brought a side dish. Plenty of food and we met some nice people. We've frequented a couple of beaches and played one round of golf. We also drove to Sanibel Island and Captiva. Sanibel has been noted as having the best beaches for shelling. Did some shopping and ate lunch at the Mucky Ducky on Captiva Island. Foods ok, but the best part is sitting outside with the ocean breezes.

A little hard to walk on, but a great
spot if your a collector


Darn!!! They ruined our plans.

The real estate agents here hold 3-4 open houses a week during prime time, so we had to go to one. Beautiful 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home with the entire back wall of floor to ceiling windows for a view of the ocean and a price tag of $5,750,000. Just a little out of our price range! We thought the condo's we viewed in Naples were expensive at $850,000. I guess the housing recession in Florida we hear about didn't hit this area.

After spending the day worshiping the sun at Naples Municipal Beach and Pier, we went back to enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sunset. An awesome sight.


Naples Pier during the day. Lots of fisherman
trying to catch sting rays and snook.

Gone...as the ocean swallows the sun.
Another day in Naples




Enjoying a glass of wine on the pier watching
the sunset....until the Naples police came by
to tell us they did not allow alcohol on the
pier....oh well.

Hope all is well!
