Englewood Beach, Boca Grand with my parents.

We anchored out at Indian Mound which is near where my parents live close by. It worked out wonderful because they  have a friend with a dock right in front of our anchorage. We were able to dinghy to their private dock and my parents picked us up there.

Looking for sharks teeth which Englewood beach is known for.

 

I found this tiny shark tooth in the sand next to my chair.

After spending the day on the beach we went to dinner at Gulf View.   We had a quick drink at the Tiki Bar waiting for our reservation.

We sat inside with the air conditioning  and  with the perfect view of the sunset.

The next day we went to Boca Grande. We spent a glorious day on the beach.  We did some shell picking  and beach bumming. The temperature was perfect.  We went though the small museum. After the beach we drove to the little town and shopped the quaint shops.

Boca Grande. We spent a beautiful day on this beach.

We found a gem of a marina which is listed as a historic place.

This place was not just “Old Forida” but “Broken Down Old Florida” It was very interesting, but with minimal amount of care and straighten it could be almost a museum without losing the  character.

Scott wanted to buy this Anchor.
This make me chuckle.

Last Call and a beautiful sunset at our anchorage at Indian Mound.

My parents were a life saver. They took us shopping and my Mom and I did errands and she sat with me while I got my hair cut.  We got back on the boat re-provisioned  and well taken care of . We are also thankful for the time spent with my parents Love you guy!

Thanks for reading,

Karen and Scott

  1. Love reading your posts! You both look great! We plan to be in Florida and down in Englewood toward the end of our trip but not till April – thought maybe we could try to meet up with you but not sure it will work out. We haven’t planned where in Fla. we will be when but I will check in the closer it gets.

    1. Definitely connect when you the time gets closer. I can’t even guess where we will be that far out. Plan to be in the Keys within the next 2 weeks weather pending. Thats as far a s we have planned.

    1. We are getting tan so the sun is a little more tolerable. Lot’s of sunscreen helps. I don’t even know how many bottles we have gone through. Love being in the sun.
