Still in Islamorada, FL
Tuesday, February 13. Rain again most of the day. The sun finally peeped out at 3 p.m., so Bob and I strolled around Founder's Park, which is located beside the marina. What a terrific place -- in addition to the Olympic-sized pool, tennis courts, and beach area, there is also a nice dog park and a pavillion for concerts. Also exercise equipment is located along the walking path, so people can stretch their hamstrings or whatever they want. We understand that one of the recent hurricanes devastated the area. Using grant money, the town rebuilt it into this lovely park. Very well done.
Oh, did I mention that the marina is protected by a jetty, which is now covered with mangroves. We've enjoyed looking out past this mangrove barrier into Florida Bay, where we caught a pretty sunset tonight. We would stay at Plantation Key Harbor again in a heartbeat.
