Thick, full of shrimp and fish and slightly spicy. It was served with OK hushpuppies suitable for dipping.

It is around the &#8220;point&#8221; of Apalachicola and requires either driving far inland to I-10 or cutting across surface roads for a shorter distance but potentially more time as we travel through interesting but slow towns.<\/p>\n<p>Joan discovered an interesting campsite. Apparently a small landowner with an extra few feet of land found the zoning laws were not very strict and paved 3 very nice concrete sites. He named the place <strong>Big Z<\/strong>. The site had rocking chairs, a nice table, a large concrete pad and full utilities.<\/p>\n<p>The secret of the town is Roy&#8217;s Restaurant.\u00a0 It is located at the only real marina in the area and is 1\/2 block from a public dock &#8211; both are very busy. Stu expected to\u00a0 kayak down the Steinhatchee River, and even bicycled to the marina to see the canoes and kayaks being recovered at the end of the downstream trip.<\/p>\n<p>He found, instead, four very busy boat ramps launching and recovering fishing boats to harvest the bounty of the waters flowing by the Marina. That, and the unseasonably cold weather, changed our plans.<\/p>\n<p>We did have an amazing dinner before we left town the next day. Roy&#8217;s has a small but very well provisioned salad bar with wonderful homemade carrot salad, peas in a sauce we cannot name, and a giant bowl of homemade potato salad that was, rightly, a big draw of the folks who came to dine. After two trips each to the salad bar, we were ready for a nap, but we still had our entrees to eat.<\/p>\n<p>Joan&#8217;s &#8220;rock shrimp special&#8221; arrived hot from the broiler with a serving of fresh broccoli that looked good enough to eat but ended up mostly in a take home box. Stu&#8217;s catfish was a hit, nicely flavored and with three filets more than he should eat, but he foolishly enjoyed every bite, served with cheese grits and OK hush puppies.<\/p>\n<h3>March 17 to 19: Homosassa &#8211; Camp N Water Outdoor Resort<\/h3>\n<p>What a special place this was &#8211; lovely setting, friendly people, right on the canal for great boating and lots of places to dine.<\/p>\n<p>We had a wonderful dinner at the Marguerita Grill in Homosassa, mahi sandwich for Stu, Garlic Herb Shrimp for Joan, very fresh and delicious shrimp, except that there was no garlic herb flavor.<\/p>\n<h3>March 20 to 22: Sarasota at Sun Outdoors and home<\/h3>\n<p>The 2-hour or so drive to Sarasota was uneventful. We had brunch before we left &#8211; about noon &#8211; and took a combination of surface roads and I-75, forgoing the coastal route.<\/p>\n<p>Sun Outdoors is a large park with a combination of permanent residents and a smaller number of RVers who are seasonal and an even smaller number of short term guests like us.\u00a0 We were assigned a small but usable spot on a curve on a main access route that I had to completely block to back into the tight spot. It took a few minutes and involved some tension.<\/p>\n<p>We have been here before when the park was no better. It is crowded due to the proximity of Sarasota. Our area was all full-time residents except for a few transient sites like ours that were far to small to hold the much larger homes that were really not intended to be moved.<\/p>\n<p>Once settled in, the tobacco smoke began to filter into our trailer. Even equipped with smoke filters, the neighbors walking by made the stay very uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>I hope we never return here.<\/p>\n<p>We did have a very good dinner at der Dutchman, a restaurant run by the Amish.<\/p>\n<p>Stu had the meatloaf dinner which he downed with gusto. Joan got the salmon dinner &#8220;lightly grilled&#8221; which arrived with thick black grill marks on both sides. We sent it back, but the waitress brought a second second dinner with thin black grill marks. Other than the black marks, the salmon was very good, both for dinner and for lunch the next day. The meals came with 2 sides including a wondrous salad bar for an extra $2.49. We both filled our plates twice, it was so good.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning we drove to the local Regenexx office for Joan&#8217;s knee treatments that we had pre-planned, and then we drove straight home, to arrive before the novacaine had worn off.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, a wonderful trip.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/index.php\/2024-may-denton-tx-nicoles-graduation\/\">Click here to visit Denton, TX for Nicole&#8217;s Graduation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We got off to a good, problem-free, start with a comfortable 200-mile trip the first day.
