clay courts and saw where Chris Evert learned to play. We had lunch at
many of the great restaurants off the inter coastal waterway and just
drove around looking at the homes with a dock in the back yard to see
what size of boat they had. Any one else do this? :-) We'll be back
again next year. It really has been too long.
