Terra Ceia, Bishop Harbor

It was raining, and I was a a distance due to tidal affects.  Decided to make another summer time trip to Sanibel. I had gone in June, when the days were longer, and made it to Fort Myers just in time for sunset.  This time, I stopped half way, taking the Moccasin Wallow Road exit from I-75 4 miles west to Terra Ceia State Preserve.
 On the water at 7:08. It was raining





Not so much Sunshine Skyway

 The canal to Lakes Nina and Minnehaha is not as fancy as the ones in Winter Park

 
 Just a peak at Lake Nina before heading back
