***Home away from home... January 25th -Feb3rd

Stayed at White Horse Hotel on Monday night after leaving chokoloskee island... Looked around most of day Monday and since we are here midseason did not find a place we felt was acceptable. This little Mom and Pop hotel is clean as a pin and the lady gave us a good deal on a weeks stay....Annette and I decided that we should consider this our home for a month and not a "vacation" since we cannot afford to live on the beach...especially in this part of Florida for an entire month. However... it is fitting our needs (except for the ocean view) very well. It is only a few minutes drive to multiple oceanside parks and plenty of stores and things to do. We are learning more every day. The weather is getting warmer and I have the sunburn to prove it. It is so nice to be able to go out in shorts and T shirt..especially since we would be trapped up north. Weather getting warmer and we are getting more comfortable as week goes along... can find ourself around town with less help from Iphone... not complicated...just bigger than any town in WV..flat and laid out simply.
Saturday...Went back to Gulfstream Park today (1/31) Wind blowing and temp about 71..slightly cool but not uncomfortable...stayed three hours and could have stayed longer...but weather supposed to get warmer and did not want to be lobsterized... back to room to watch end of WVU/Texas Tech game and nap...Had dinner at "Buds Chicken and Seafood". Never saw such a busy chicken house..cars back up and people lined up. Chicken good but still prefer the Col's and Bojangles.
Today we went back to Gulfstream...wind down some, temp up some...stayed there for about 5 hours..came back to snack and watch game... was nearly robbed of my sub by a seagull...never had one try to take it out of my hand before..I won.

Riggins Crab House...Lantana Fla.... first nite in town.... Excellent..clams, whole fish, shrimp, fish filet ,crab, and oyster.
