Homeward Bound

We arrived home yesterday, Thursday, March 3, after two tough days of driving.  Our last day at Key Largo we went to Biscayne National Park.  This is a unique park in that it is mainly water.  It was established to protect the northern Keys.  Here are some photos.

 After leaving Key Largo we headed to Venice, FL to visit Gary and Donna, my cousind and his wife.  We had a nice tour of the Venice area and toured a model of the home they are building there in Venice.  The home is lovely.  I'm anxious to see it when they get it done.  I asked them what month we should come down next winter.
