For any of you Floridians out there (or anywhere else). I had friends down from PA a week ago and took them to the Tarpon Springs "sponge docks". Tarpon Springs is known as the "Sponge Capital of the World". It's where Greek sponge divers settled and grew their business. They still do it to this day and lots of tourists visit to buy sponges of all kinds, take tours to see actual sponge divers diving for sponges and enjoy Greek food.

Here's a shot of one of the old sponge boats after a recent trip out for sponges.

Ron great Idea-Norma said she will give us a tour-now if we could stay at her place we'd be all set!!!:D I do hope your a good cook!

I have 3 extra bedrooms...think you could all fit in there...LOL! Jancy, I hate to cook so we'd be eating out a lot. I cook but don't love it.

Thank You Norma. My wife and I can't wait to get back there when the flowers start blooming. Even though I have the fancy camera and lens and she has a little P&S. Her photos will be much better than mine.
