We enjoyed our three days in Sarasota; two of the nights were at Marina Jack right in the center of downtown Sarasota. Susan even got to spend some time shopping on St. Armands Circle. That may have been the highlight of the trip so far for her. While Sue shopped I rode my bike around some of the sights on Longboat Key.
From Sarasota we had a short ride to Venice where we spent one night at the city dock near the Venice Inlet.
The next morning we left Venice and motored down Lemon Bay and found a well protected anchorage off Manisota Key near Englewood Beach. The anchor site was just a short dingy ride and a two block walk to a great beach near Stump Pass.
After a couple of days at the beach and two nights on the hook, we headed to The Gasparilla Marina in Placida. We will leave the boat here for a couple of days while we visit with my parents in nearby North Port.

Hello Northern Light!
We will be at Burnt Store Marina February 24-28 then over to Englewood for two months. Are you going to be around the area?

Brad,
I just caught up on your travels and noticed we both had the same Pensacola dock picture posted - just different boats. De Anne thought is was very funny!!
