Steve and Julie payed us a visit this May and we had a blast! We went to Cabbage Key for the first time, and were at the beach or on the boat everyday. Highlights of the trip included:
- Cabbage key only accessibly by boat or sea plane
o Jimmy Buffet's haunt before he became famous
o Cabbage key known for cheeseburger (Buffet's inspiration for 'Cheeseburger in Paradise')
- spearfishing offshore almost every day (7 fish - grouper, hogfish, snapper)
- tarpon fishing right of the beach with Kevin Faulkner (we were right on them, just no hookup)
- Steve's diving "accident" and losing Kevin's speargun
- lots of snorkeling for shells (what a collection!)
- cruising through Boca Grande tarpon tournament with 2 boats hooked up
- gourmet 'fresh speared' fish dinners every night
Gotta' love those east winds every day!!!!!! Crystal clear blue/green water.
