Beau was not with us. The park you see on the other side of the bay has distemper awarnings. |
while wandering this starting point of the trail, turn and look back to see this view. The trails follow the water line, sometimes going under, over and around threes.

Manatee River at low tide. The docks belong to the UBER Rich. Once Bob was wade fishing waste deep, going around the dock, and a famous football player ran out on the dock and told him he was on private property to get out of his year. Bob responded, Florida law is you can't own anything that is covered by the water. your dock is yours and I am not touching it, the sand I am in is mine. the response was, I am calling the police. He said go for it, I will be right here when they come. No one came. |

What views! And what a shame the football player had to be so nasty.
Hello,
The trail looks nice and I love the views of the water.
Lovely collection of photos.
Take care, have a great day!
its sad what money does with people when they are not ready to handle that... a mean character after all... we love the tree it looks like a grinning gator and a monkey :o)

Fabulous views...and interesting about the non-ownership. YAM xx
Distemper warnings YIKES.
I just heard today that measles is on the rise again.
Why in the world don't pet owners and parents get their babies vaccinated.
What a rude UBER rich

CAN you get dogs vaccinated against distemper? (of course there is human vaccination for measles but there seems to be a generation who have grown up without seeing the worst effects of a measles epidemic and haven't bothered to protect their kids.) The walk looks lovely - shame people think they can somehow own beauty and exclude others from the appreciation and enjoyment of it. Same here and in NZ - you can't own the water (in NZ the non-ownership is right up to the high tide mark - even when the tide is out).
Good for Bob! I love the wide sandy trail, the third photo with the big fat palm trees, and the next one with the big gnarled tree on the right.
Oh, how annoying for the uber rich, not being able to own the water as well... ;)
My favourite photo today is No 4 - love that tree!
It's a lovely area, great photos! Whenever I hear anything like this, I just shake my head. Good for Bob for standing his ground.
Beautiful views.
Good for Bob to stand his ground. I wasn't aware of laws like that. Beautiful photos this morning.

Such a pretty trail. I'd spend my time admiring the water views too. That idiot football player, that is why I quit watching that sport years ago.
What a gorgeous park...and perfect lighting!!
Sounds like that football player was a real jerk!
What a beautiful place. Good for Bob putting that football player in his place. Just because you have money doesn't mean you own the world.
Those twisted tree trunks are so interesting!
What a miserable so-and-so to accuse Bob of trespassing. Wouldn't his be an unhappy state of mind, all the time worrying about what's HIS or that someone's out to take advantage?
Good for Bob!
What a pretty view. Even though all our doggies have their shots the distemper warnings would have concerned me too.
Blessings. xx
People can be so rude! That's such a pretty place!
Hi Sandra This park gets better each time I see your photos. The views are fabulous and I love the twisted trunk of the tree, and the winding paths.The super rich footballer was so mean, but Bob put him in his place!
I love those views. Good for Bob!
It is all so lovely. The photos are lovely and so are the views. I especially like that first one with the path through the trees.
