After a delicious cup of coffee and some conversation we said goodbye to Joanne and the Villages and headed south to Lake Placid. First through Horse Country and then the roads were lined with Orange Groves. There were sightings of many open trucks filled to the brim with Oranges.
We packed up and said goodbye to Linda and Dan and to Apalachicola and with one last delicious Cafe con Leche in hand headed south in the rain.
One of the activities we discovered in our planning for this trip was an "Apalachicola Rover Front Boat Tour" run by the Apalachicola Maritime Museum. This was something we had never done, so we made reservations for the 11am tour.
St George's Island is a barrier island connected to the mainland by bridge. One end of the Island is St George's Island State Park with a camp ground and buildings housing restrooms and picnic pavilions spaced somewhat evenly along the 7 miles of beach.
Yesterday and today our activities have been minimal. Marsha finished one book and started another, Harry did some sketching, we both consumed a significant amount of seafood, and just sat and enjoyed the scene.
