Fort DeSoto / St. Pete Beach Florida

---

Here we are back enjoying the quiet and solitude of Fort Desoto, a Lee County park in the Tampa Bay area. Our first night was fun, cocktails at sunset at the picnic table, BLT's (fab fresh Georgia tomatoes), and a game of gin where I was accused of cheating.

Mostly relaxing, reading, and a bit of bird watching on the private little beach in front of our campsite.

Two restaurant recommendations - Tony & Nello's for FAB Italian food and Sea Critters on Pass A Grille for wonderful seafood.



We just love the Pass A Grille area where we visited an artsy boutique (wait til y'all see the cool sundress I bought), caught sunset at the beach (they ring a bell to signal the exact moment the sun slips into the Gulf of Mexico), and had great seafood at Sea Critters near the Yacht Club.

These guys get free camping in exchange for doing a bit of work around the park. They do a great job!
