It was overcast
this morning when we got up but the forecast looked pretty good so we decided
to go to the beach. We wanted to get in another beach day before we left and
today was our last chance to do so.
We ran a few
errands then headed over to the beach in Fred Howard Park near Tarpon Springs. We
had been there before but had not spent any time on the beach. The beach is not real large and wasn’t too
crowded; it is not a spring break destination. The sun came out and it was
partly cloudy but windy as we waded in the water a little and relaxed in the
sun. After a while, we moved our beach
chairs into the shade under the palm trees at the edge of the beach and relaxed
some more into the afternoon.
After a very
enjoyable time at the beach we decided to have a late lunch/early dinner at a
riverfront restaurant in Tarpon Springs, Captain Jacks. The restaurant is a typical
area beach restaurant, open air, tiki bar, casual dining, lots of food selections
with a seafood emphasis, many kinds of draft beer and tropical drinks and live
music (Jimmy Buffett genre). We had a nice meal (fish tacos and a grouper
sandwich) then drove back to the RV for the evening.
There is
another baseball game tomorrow and the forecast is for thunderstorms in the
afternoon, so we’ll see how it goes. We
are also planning to go back to Lenny’s for breakfast again and pick up a few
Brooklyn knishes for the return trip.
Saturday, we will start to get organized for breaking camp and maybe visit
the large flea market here. There is one
more game on Sunday.
