In another post, Bob Denton suggested east coast or the keys, and you have some interesting suggestions about Key Largo. Frankly, I don't know enough to judge, so I'd suggest you Floridians work it out. The wife has given tentative approval for a January or February trip and taking the kayak -- but we'll have to work in some visits to overwintering relatives, too. >There's a really nice private campground with its own beach in Key Largo. >King's Camp. 305-451-0010 tent sites are $20 (I just called and they said >same price both seasons).

Sounds like a real strong possibility. Again, I think you Floridians will have to work out the details. But, I'm looking forward to it already! -- Wes *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Thu Aug 31 2000 - 12:53:25 PDT
