St James City

2-7-09

Last night, we anchored on the south end of Pine Island--near St James City--with six sailboats.

I got the dinghy down and went fishing. Caught a hundert ladyfish, and some small trout. (For those of you who might not know, "hundert" is a unit of measure that applies exclusively to fishing--it's when you catch more than you can count.) It's been so cool here that most of the fish are hiding someplace that I haven't found yet. It's going to warm up this week, so they should come back out to play soon.

In the afternoon, we took the dinghy on a tour of the canals on the south end of Pine Island--St James City.

There are some very nice houses

But it's not Naples. Even the restaurants are different

There are miles of canals.
