After three nights in Tarpon Springs,
the crew of Viridian is refreshed from the Gulf crossing and
ready to head south for the Keys. We will be going down the Gulf side of
Florida to reach our winter destination of Key West. (A final word on Tarpon
Springs, FL. You don't have to be Looping to enjoy visiting this great
spot. There is a ton of history surrounding this town founded on the
sponge industry and populated by the largest Greek community in the US.
The food is fabulous and so are the people. Plan a trip to spend a few
days at Tarpon Springs. It is certainly worth a visit.)
That's the news and here's the views:
