  • Jerry and Linda travel 44 miles to Homosassa and take an exciting ride on an airboat. The Newcomers spent the afternoon with Captain Paul of PT Airboat Adventures. They cruised through the waters of the Homosassa River and out into the Gulf of Mexico. The 20' air boat flew along on top of the water making wicked left and right turns to the delight of the passengers. Come along for an exhilarating ride.

    It’s 81 in Duluth Minnesota. Who’d have thunk. Gorgeous day. So is yours. That airboat looks like great fun. The little stinker was really flying. We went on the gondolas up the mountain yesterday to see the fall colors. Wish I could share the beauty with you. Like Linda, I was a bit apprehensive. I survived. Did you know an eagles nest can weigh in as much as 300 lbs, or so I’ve been told.

    As a former Air Force recruiter, I always love seeing the AF hat come out, just glad it didn’t blow off, or I might have sent you a new one. Next time you’re in the area of Everglade City, they also have airboat tours and they take you into these narrow waterways with the tree canopy overhead, it’s amazing. Lots of manatees and gators! Enjoyed the video, have to get back to work now😊

As far as this video, that looked like fun! But, that boat was moving FAST! Not sure I would go, but, then again, if there was "pier" pressure, I would probable go! (SORRY for that one...)
