I spied this gnarley swim mask at the pool area on Hutchinson Beach. Amazing what sea water and pounding waves and hot sun can do to a face! Clinique forever! Fort Pierce and Vero Beach
Our stay on the "east coast" of Florida was fun, if chilly, and went by all too quickly. We hooked up with friends from home and had a little bar-b-que at the Holiday Out Beach/Pool complex across A1A via tunnel from where the RV site was.

Vero Beach historic downtown - like so many - is in the early stages of renewal. Fort Pierce had a Friday Fest at their revitalized harbor area. Fun gathering - eclectic audience! Heading out with great memories --- hoping that Florida warms up for all of us!
