On Sunday morning we left Pine Island and drove to Bonita Springs to visit Don and Gwen in their beautiful new Florida home. On the way, we stopped on the tiny island of Matlace, home to many colorful antique and curiosity shops. We had a great couple of days with Don and Gwenn, including a beautiful sunny afternoon at Bonita Beach where several varieties of birds patrolled the skies and surf, dolphins were visible just offshore and fishermen and jet ski enthusiasts enjoyed their pastimes.
