January 22, 2018 Hunter Springs Park 

We tried to fish in the springs there, but there were way too many manatees to do so without the risk of hooking one. John caught a small jack crevalle and a lady fish. Not quite what we were hoping for but removed the skunk.

Joan catches a nice spotted bass in a lake in Lakewood Ranch. We each caught a couple this size.

We met cousins Dave and Marty at Linger Lodge, near Lakewood Ranch. This is a destination place that is truly old Florida. It has very good food also.
