as our time was limited 9free trans
portation by real estate deaIers) we
did not try the fishing, but did
catch a fine large turtle which made
elegant soup for our Sunday din
ner.
Arrived in Jacksonville, Nov. IS.
This is really the business hub of
southern Georgia. South Carolina
and Florida. Arrived at st. Au-
gustine at p. m, Nov. 16. AS we
have spent part of eight winters
in this oldest town in the United
States, we found several old ac-
quaintanees. We spent several
days fishing, shopping etc. One
fishing trip was a thriller as we
rented small row-boat and went
out through the inlet on the outside
of Anastasia island. We had sever
Ial hours of good sea fishing, then
the wind got so high we could not
make the anchor hold, so we start
led on the return trip but the wind
was against us, and only for the
fact that the tide was in our favor
likely have had to land in the
breakers on the outside and walk
across the island and leave the
boat to the mercy of the wind and
tide. We arrived home tired and
hungry. st. Augustine has a new
water system and the water is
much better than we found it some
years back.
We left ST. Augustine Nov. %,
and since that date have visited and
revisited all towns, beaches and
camps between st. Augustine and
Miami. We found good trout fish
ing at a bridge below Daytona.
Live shrimp was the best BAIT, but
few being caught with artificial
bait. We had fairly good success
fishing with cut shrimp, from the
big bridge at Fort Pierce. At the
Jensen bridge we had several days
fishing on way down; this is said
to be or to have been the best fish
ing spot in Florida, but we are
told it is not so good this year.
From Fort Pierce down the east
coast to Miami, we saw thousands of
wrecked houses, boats and up-root-
ed trees, showing the path of the re-
cent storms that swept this section
We passed through many real es-
tate developments, but they seem to
be idle and the speculation of last
year is noticeably absent, in fact
the bubble has burst. At Miami, not
knowing the location of points of
interest, We paid $3.50 in one day
for sight seeing tours in and
around the city. We visited the
beaches, and the residential dis
tricts; saw the former home of the
late William Jennings Bryan, also
homes of many millionaires. Visit
ed the big real estate development
so highly advertised Coral Cables
many fine homes, hotels and bus
mess houses; it looks to us like
case of "the fool and his money
soon parted" We visited a Semi
mole Indian camp in the Everglades.
From Titusville down the coast it
is continuous fight with mos
quitoes and sand fieas. We will ad-
nit that the weather is warm. i'll
