Mosquito County Tours is a business that is going places. We blogged in the past about Mandy Longo's creation when we first discovered it. Since that time we have tried to make a weekend where we could get together and try a tour for ourselves.
Earlier this month, the Moon was in the Seventh House...
As many of you know, Mrs Funmeister is a vegetabletarian. Naturally, this then figures in when we pick restaurants. On our trip to Venice, we discovered The Cafe Evergreen. Based on rave reviews on TripAdvisor we decided to try it.
The restaurant actually is located in Nokomis, inside a former post office. With both...
So we've been to Fort Myers Beach several times and we always have wanted to try Doc Ford's Rum Bar & Grille. The last time we walked around forever and couldn't find it. This time we got smart and put it in the GPS.
Once we got there we found a huge complex. There's indoor...
As we have traveled through Florida we have come up on some wonderful historic downtown areas. We've visited Melbourne, Punta Gorda and Bartow to name a few. Located just off the Tamiami Trail south of Venice, the shopping area along Dearborn Street in Englewood is every bit as enchanting.

Our stay at the Best Western Plus Ambassador Suites...

Nestled off County Road 17 between Avon Park and Sebring in Highlands County, the place has served as an eatery...
We had a great opportunity to visit Venice, Florida recently, and while we were there we had five must-dine experiences. Since this was our initial foray into the area, these were are first experiences. We didn't have a bad one in the lot.

Although our trip was to Venice, we found the...
Ideal Classic Cars is located in Venice. The question is, is it a museum or a dealership? Well it appears to be both.
Set along the US 41 Bypass, Ideal Classic Cars has over 100 vintage, classic and custom cars, trucks, vans and motorcycles. They are parked in a 30,000 square foot, air conditioned building....
