“Where are we going?” “I dunno, where is your heart leading you?”
Boca Grande
There was only one ask, “Be at the dock by 10:00 am.” “Gee gosh, you mean I have to set an alarm? Punta Gorda is a two hours drive away! Well OK, if I have too.” Getting up early has its rewards.
Coincidently my brother Bill and his wife Vicky were vacationing in Punta Gorda, Florida. Vicky’s brother, Tony, graciously invited Deb and I on a boat ride. The drive from North Orlando to Punta Gorda was an easy Saturday morning drive. Our host and hostess, Tony and Janice blessed us with a boat ride, indoor pool, and hot tub experience. Brother Bill blessed everyone with an awesome lunch at a Punta Grande Marina. The whole day was one of those, “I’m rich with friends, and glad to be alive type day.”

Brilliant new home
I wonder if this is a typical Florida home?
Boat slip right in the backyard. How cool is that?

Tony was going to slow, so Vicky pushed
Tony out of the way and took over. Kidding.

Motoring across Gasparilla Sound for 2 hours landed us in Boca Grande. Awesome boat tour!
Getting ready for the sunset.
I think the gals were doing a better job getting ready.

It’s just fun saying, “Withlacoochee.”
