Today we checked into Fort Desoto County Park Campground in Pinellas County for three nights. We are in Site #174 which is the first site time we’ve stayed in the “No Pets” portion of the campground (Phoebe the cat is not a pet, she is family). The site is on one of the inner campground boat channels, so we are technically on the water. It’s very warm for April today, but there is a front passing through this evening which should give us very nice temperatures and low humidity for the remainder of our stay. We will be watching Florida vs Houston in the final game of March Madness this evening.
On Tuesday we tried out Red, White and Booze in St Pete Beach (Passe a Grille) for lunch. It replaced the old Sea Critters next to The Wharf restaurant. The food was a little pricey, but very good. I had one of the best Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches ever. Beth’s Cuban was also very good with very good Cuban bread from Ybor City, but the meat was a bit smokier than she likes. We both loved the incredible fries which were shaped like onion peels. Overall, it was a great experience.
On Wednesday, Mom & Dad joined us for lunch at Billy’s Stone Crab. We all ordered grouper nuggets and were not disappointed. Afterwards, we sat outside the camper and watched some dolphins hunt for fish in the bay behind our campsite.
