Weather - close to 80 - sunny - very humid, humid, humid!
We have been riding our motorcycle up and down this coast and its such a quiet part of Florida. In the little villages there are few stores or restaurants and all family run establishments.
Main livelihood is off the Fishing - Shrimp, Oysters, Blue Crab and Scallops. You can stop at any of the tiny fisheries and buy the catch of the day.
Our cell phone has no signal here and the Internet is usually one or two bar at best so using Skype to call is next to impossible. In fact its hard to get your hands on a daily newspaper. We have inherited the park cat name "RV"; yes that is him climbed into our basement storage. Billy says "he better watch it or he will be getting a ride he won't forget, ha ha".
Tourism has not caught on here which seems bizarre since you are in Florida. Apalachicola has some historical inn's which are in the old Floridian style - very nostalgic.
So the motorcycle riding is unhurried and enjoyable with lots of coastline, state parks and little villages with some quaint places to stop.
Don and Annie came into our RV park with their bike gang this week and we joined them riding for a few days along the Forgotten Coast. Good times.

Carrabelle has the smallest police station in the world - made the Guiness World Book of Records. |
