Snook Haven

Saturday September 27, 2008

Old Florida at its finest.
Snook Haven Retreat on the Myakka River is just the ticket to take the edge off.

5000 Venice Ave.  Exit 191 off I-75.

It has an interesting menu and a beautiful view.

The put-in spot.

Dragonfly.

Purple flower.

Group photo: Neysa, Brian, Susan, Sarah and Dick.

Brian took this one.

And a good one of me in action.

The trees along the rivers edge fall over and continue to grow.

Which make for some awesome photo ops.

Good photo of Susan, looking very happy and in good form.

Brian amuses the photographer.

A few more bent trees; still growing.

Sarah in the weeds.

A nice reflection photo.

Thankfully these guys stayed hidden until we exited the river.

And this one didn't eat me when I fell in. I later thanked him before taking his photo.

This little guy was hanging out in a plant on the deck.

Dick relaxes with a few beers.

Another successful outing.
