Fort Myers, Florida - Days 10 - 14

We enjoyed dinner and live music with Michael and Mundy in Englewood, Florida. Garrmin enjoyed the Pooch Park in Ft. Myers. We had a great time taking a road trip to Marco Island, Florida. We also enjoyed meeting other Loopers here at port along with meeting Eddy, our Looper "Eddy's Weather Wag", weather Guy that posts weather forecast for crossing over the Gulf of Mexico from the panhandle to the west coast of Florida.  Most importantly, Charlie is now officially retired after 37.5 years working for the Fort Worth Fire Department!!

We enjoyed a great week with family in Palmetto! Thank you Marty and Linda, Debbie and Scott for such special times together!  Today, we traveled 57.7 NM to Englewood, Florida. Beautiful views along many Manatee Slow Zone areas. We enjoyed docking with fellow Facebook Live Aboards, Tom and Sue, Marty and Lee, Michael. Rat Terrier Hackett and his crew, Margaret and Michael. The night was filled with tons of laughter! Garmin had a great time with new dock pup friends. We had a fantastic night with such great people! These times are what makes our adventure so rich!!! We are thankful for such a warm welcoming! And the laughs made for lifetime memories! We are docked at Cape Haze Marina, Englewood, Florida.
