My favorite dinner place was Caroline's River Inn on the water. We went the day before Valentine's Day since we'd be traveling home the next day. Larry was tired of seafood after a week so he ordered steak, but I ordered stuffed scallops which was an arrangement of large scallops top and bottom with a crabcake between them all in a flaky pastry with a delicious cream sauce. I could have ordered that every day for a week. I traded some with Larry for a little steak, but I definitely had the better dinner. I can't wait to go back next year. And the waitress said their breakfasts are wonderful so that will definitely be on the menu as well. Good place to go after Mass! Although the little church in town, St. Patrick's only had a daily Mass on Monday and Tuesday. Next closest Masses were in Panama City and Tallahassee both an hour and half away. That was the only big drawback to the location since we like to go to daily Mass.
Well, as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words so here are some of our pictures from our winter escape. I have more on my phone but haven't figured out to get them off yet. I'm too dumb for the smart phone. LOL!
The beach in the early morning. We're off to collect shells.
This doesn't do justice to the beautiful sunset!
A sidewalk in Apalachicola. What a charming little town!
Love those pine trees. Here I am on Carabelle Beach.
Everywhere we went we saw mountains of oyster shells.
We also saw the oystermen out in the Bay with their long tongs.
Carabelle lighthouse: passed up the chance to climb to the top.
Went on a hike instead.

Lucky you, getting to spend some time in Florida. I am jealous! I bet you hated returning to this frigid weather.

It was lovely and we did hate to come back. Ever since we arrived it's been frigid. I was just looking at the temps on St. George --upper 50s to 70s. (sigh) I want to go back. I loved riding my bike. It's so flat there!
