More Evidence
Spring sure is hard to find. It doesn’t reach out and demand attention. Most everything growing is the same stuff and that stuff is always green.

Wicked FPB – The Shape Of Things To Come

This Place Is A Zoo
No, really. This place is a zoo. OK, I’m gonna go out on a limb here. If you’re cruising on the ICW, you have to stop at Osprey Marina for a couple of reasons. First, it’s a great place. It’s a really nice marina, and pric…
