riclem,
Welcome to the board! The sanbar that you are referring to is the Anclote Sandbar. Was there every weekend last summer. I've been in Italy this summer (work). Haven't been on the boat since May. Won't be back until the end of September. How's the sandbar? It used to be very large. After a while it was cut in two and then the south side was pretty much swallowed up even at low tide. Great place to play and party.
The wife and I are late 30's, early 40's. Sometimes with friends, sometimes alone. No kids in the house now!! Our daughter is a sophomore at FSU. Usually its beer and horseshoes. If we get out early, I usually feel it necessary to start with Jello shots. 'Cause Jello can't be bad for breakfast!
Not a lot of activity on this board for our area. Maybe we can shake things up a little. We prefer the Anclote sanbar, but we also make it up to Three Rooker Bar. Ever been there? Pretty crowded place, but quite a few families go there. Maybe we can catch up when I get back from Italy...
