Trip to Ft. Myers to Visit Wes
November 5-10, 2011
 | Sherry, Brenda and Rod head out early for the trip to Ft.Myers, Florida. Brenda had gotten us a place at Tropical Sands Resort on Ft. Myers Beach. We left at 5:20am and made the 615 mi trip to Ft. Myers Beach in 11 hours, even with the almost an hour tie-up getting from Ft. Myers to Ft. Myers Beach. That delay was mostly because of the sand sculpting competition and other events scheduled for this weekend.  |

 | The blending of housing and land and water is very nice in this relaxed area. |
After settling in at the Tropical Sands, I headed across the street to the beach just in time to catch the big red sun over the bay.  I watched until the very last bit of red disappeared, hoping for the green flash, but not this time. |  |
 | Even after sundown it was interesting to watch the birds like these two ibis feeding at the waters edge. There was a narrow tidal inlet and then a sand spit before the bay began. |
