Another interesting book is Florida Off The Beaten Path, as is Hidden Florida Keys and The Everglades, a must if you plan to visit the Keys.

Amelia Island
I used to live just a few miles from Amelia Island. It
was one of my favorite places then, and continues to be a favorite today. There
are many words to describe this wonderful northern island of Florida - Sea -
Sand - Golf - and much more. But probably the most impressive thing on the
island is the abundance of live oak trees. They’re everywhere on Amelia. To find
out all about this wonderful vacation place, click on
Amelia Island.

The island is partly sheltering St. George Sound and Apalachicola Bay. It's the eastern-most part of a chain of barrier islands located off the northern panhandle of Florida just offshore from where the Crooked River merges into the Carrabelle River and then into St. George. This island is small and only accessible by boat, ferry or airplane. The Nature Conservancy owns most of the island, while some parts are privately owned residential property. The island was discovered by the French in 1536 and named because wild dogs were found on them, the islands resemble a crouched dog, or perhaps, because the early ships put their common sailors - known as dogs - on the islands before docking on the mainland so they could not jump ship. Later, the two neighbors were renamed: St. Vincent, which is a Federal wildlife refuge, and St. George, which has a causeway and is, naturally, a booming resort community. Indians used Dog Island as a fishing camp, and the 1985 hurricanes uncovered pot shards found on the west end. After World War II, Jeff Lewis, a Florida businessman, saw its potential as a vacation area and paid $12,000 for the island. |

Everglades
National Park
Everglades National Park is the only subtropical preserve in North America.
It contains both temperate and tropical plant communities, including sawgrass
prairies, mangrove and cypress swamps, pinelands, and hardwood hammocks, as well
as marine and estuarine environments. The park is known for its rich bird life,
particularly large wading birds, such as the roseate spoonbill, wood stork,
great blue heron and a variety of egrets. It is also the only place in the world
where alligators and crocodiles exist side by side. Click on The
Everglades for travel guides, brochures, and money savers to help

| Taking its name from the Stumpknocker, a fish that has loon been a part of Southern fishing lore, Stumpknockers on the River in Inverness is one of those great places in Florida for seafood. I'll admit that from the outside it doesn't seem to be much, but the food served is great. You can find everything from Gator Nuggets for an appetizer to fresh baked pies for desert. In between there is everything from catfish to shellfish to great ocean and freshwater seafood. And, if you are not into seafood, you can enjoy steaks, including their famous "Gator Steak." Stumpknockers is located on west Main Street in Inverness, and at their river location on SW State Road 200 at the Withiacoochee River Bridge between Inverness and Ocala. Call 352.726.2212 or Inverness and 352.854.2288 for the river location. Jim |
