Final day in Florida

Still a cold, breeze day. Not good boating weather.  Buddy and I decided to ride up A1A to Marathon, Florida and visit a RV Resort that is there.  This is the one which I cancelled before cause I didn't know where I was.  It is a very clean and nice park.  A big one - over 500 sites.  Most of them are permanent residence.  They have three swimming pools, 2 tennis courts, a club house and across the street is the beach.  Will put this one down for a future stay.  On our return route back to Vero, I retreived my phone and turned on the nagivator.  I wanted to find a bar on the water that was off the beaten path.  It only took two U-turns, but we found it.  It was called "Squid Lips" and its at a marina on the Indian River.  Very old and quite the local hangout.  Enjoyed a few colds ones, a snack and back on the road.

Had dinner at the Riverbend on the Indian River in Vero.  Wow, was it ever soooo crowded.  Definitely happy hour.  We managed to get a table for dinner and enjoyed some clams, steak and a yummy wedge salad.

We drove back to Port St. Lucie to get ready for our departure back home.  We'll try to get an early start, but who knows.  Since a snow storm is headed home, we best get back as quick as possible.
