Not a blog more like another pier banyan tree, a place to come & sit for a little while & wait for something fun to happen. A place for all the greezers, candyasses, Halloween egg throwers, former Publix bagboys & dirt bike riders to kill a little time until Halloween. Just like the good old days, wait around for a couple hours until you could find some geezer to buy you beer...

Parkshore Beach & North Gulfshore Blvd
To the north at the 2 sandy points is the future home of the Parkshore Drive bridge. I remember us dirtbikers would have a field day before the bridge was put in. They dredged mountains of sand for both approaches you could throttled hard & try to fly up them. It really didn't matter if you made it or not it was all soft sugar sand you could fall & not get hurt. Downside was riding the rest of the day with sand in your underwear, ears, nose & everywhere else. You can see the City of Naples Vedado Way beach access lined with palm trees. Top of the picture is Seagate & Clam Bay.
