Punta Gorda Depot




The restored Punta Gorda Depot is now a museum. This area was once a phosphate mining town but now just us old geezers. Bottom photo show the original colored and white laboratories.

Pine Island and Boca Grande




These are two of the barrier islands that protect Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda from the Gulf. The bottom photo is of Tarpon Lodge, an old Florida inn where you expect FDR or Ernest Hemingway to come down the hall at any moment.

Pottery Farm




This place has billion and billions of brightly painted pots, animals and fountains.
