The Gorton’s Fisherman Yes, it’s true, the Gorton’s Fisherman lives on Hickory Blvd. on Bonita Beach. He’s a couple of doors down from the Mermaid Mailbox. It’s been a spell since I’ve taken this photo. It’s been a while since I’ve even been able to post something on the blog. I’ve been a hostage. The [...]

Dead Fish Mailbox | Old Bonita Springs You were all holding your breath for the mailbox du jour, I just know it. Special thanx to a humongous issue with Quick Books and my extension looming in the not so distant future for getting me slightly derailed from the important things; blogging about mailboxes. I think [...]

This week has been a little hectic. For all the whiners who think southwest Florida is doomed rest assured that Bonita Springs real estate is, in fact, selling. There’s been enough activity to get me buried a little behind. Yeah, I heard the recent foreclosure reports about Fort Myers and Cape Coral. Sure the news [...]

Gull Haven and Bonita Farms For some reason I just keep hearing, “Mommy, where are my Lincoln logs”? I’m just glad I found a mailbox that wasn’t a fish shape, again. Hey, I’m a little bored looking at only fish mailboxes, too. This cute mailbox was found in Gull Haven or Bonita Farms in Bonita [...]
Friday is For Dolphis and Tall Ones Recently, I joined Rotary International. I’m having a great time meeting so many new people and getting involved with the community. Why did I join Rotary?

The Gorton’s Fisherman? | Bonita Springs, Florida This one is coming from my Flickr.com archives. I took it a while back right after the bug incident on Old 41 while I was running.

Yes, Mail Goes In The “Bacon End” This little piggy went to Bonita Springs, not the market. I found this mailbox off of Windsor Road, just west of US 41. Know where Sneaky Pete’s is? It’s that street corner that you’ll turn. I’ve been taking the long way almost anywhere I go just to see [...]

Sudbury and Windsor Estates of Bonita Springs, Florida Since I had gotten my free wind mitigation survey I stopped into my insurance agency Jones & Jones to deliver the report and hopefully receive a discount.
