Spanish Point, Robbi's Reef & the Jetties
Frankie , Donna and I went to my brothers home for a mini vacation in Nikomic FL. He was a great host and we had a really nice time. Sooo relaxing getting away from the regular routine of everyday life. ha. Everynight we set by the pool talking about the good old days. Thanks Bump. I know he had to have lots of patience listening to us old ladies chatting away everyday. ha!
Historic Spanish Point is a 30-acre museum and environmental complex located in Osprey, Florida.
Robbi's Reef , just a little hole in the wall resturant that bump loves to eat at.
In 1910 Bertha Palmer made her first impact on Sarasota history and on
the Spanish Point homestead. The Chicago socialite and widow of Potter
Palmer came to Sarasota to establish a winter estate. She purchased
thousands of acres for cattle ranching, citrus groves, and real estate
development. The Webb homestead was part of the land she chose for her
350-acre estate which she named “Osprey Point.” She preserved the
pioneer buildings and connected them with lavish formal gardens and
lawns.
