Doug, was that The Rod & Gun Club you two stayed at in Everglades City?

Another nice RR Doug...and you finished it too! Nice 42 also. Reading your last couple RTW RR's and now this one has given me an appreciation of old/older Harleys.

I visited Flamingo in 1990 with my uncle. He was shooting video of fly fishing for bonefish if I remember right. About all I remember were mosquitoes so thick that you had to run from the car to the room with them swarming around you. Each morning we would stand in the room and spray off with deet until the linoleum floor started to dissolve. Not the most fun I've ever had. One good thing though, once you got offshore in the boat, the mosquitoes went bye-bye.
