Cape Coral FL Trip

[Done-it-again]

Heading out last minute for a week down in Cape Coral Fl. First we need to drive to Las Vegas in the am for our flight from the IE as flights were 2500 vs 5100. Crazy how much flights are leaving CA.

Anyways, heading out to see my parents and their new home. I was there a few days in Nov when they were buying it. Didn’t really drive around so have no idea what’s there.

Was only able to rent a toon for a week as all the CC were booked. So looks like we will be cruising the canals and bays.

Have no plans this trip, but looking forward checking out whats there. I’ll post pics of any cool boats we come across.

So far so good. Landed in Saint Paul, and looks like next flight is on time.

Not sure. But the canal water is pretty brackish due to the rain and mangroves.

Cape Coral treating blue-green algae bloom in a canal system

A blue-green algae bloom has been detected in the Boris Canal system in Cape Coral. The bloom covers 20 acres and six canals.

Ya it is. We are originally from Long Beach then Palm Springs before retirement and full time rv travel. It’s awesome to see all the different weather around the country.

Well, just got home. Not a bad trip, dispite getting that China flu that ate up 5 days. Guess I just got the natural booster. Basically a head cold.

Friday took a drive to Siesta beach to get out of the house. Why can’t CA beaches look this clean?

It’s based on who/what runs the state govt - compare, contrast, and decide
