Leaving the Village





























February has slid by like a dolphin playing peek-a-boo at the docks. We're packing up again for our departure tomorrow, going from our last sunset on the Gulf to our first sunrise on the Atlantic side of the state. John's Pass Village has really suited us because our apartment is quiet and private, but the boardwalk is in sight from our windows. Within a minute you can mingle with the visitors, watch the boats come and go, or listen in to the live music from several spots. Pat gave computer tutorials to the e-newbie neighbours and I could talk cars, motorcycles, and even Latvian history.

I have a whole new appreciation for this part of Florida. It's my natural habitat with sunny days, sea breezes and miles of beach, waterways, and canals. The main revelation to Pat has been the huge number of parks, public ocean access, and interesting wild areas. We'll miss this place, but on to Door #3!
