Many thanks Jouko. Glad you like this one. Visited the small museum there two days ago. Franklin D. Roosevelt visited the island to try Tarpon fishing from his wheelchair. Fished all day and called it quits, but the deck hands urged him to try once again. He cast his line out once more and caught a fair sized Tarpon. There had been so many boats around him watching and 'protecting' him that they scared the fish away.

Thanks Michael, this old hotel has weathered hurricanes since the 1800's and is still there. I remembered the scales on the wall as a boy.
