I personally met several of the people who are in this film. great people.
Beautiful history, thank you for sharing. I own a home here in Bonita and hope to move full time. Originally born and raised in the Philadelphia area like my family before me. My father moved to a bonita early 2000's and convinced me to buy. Thank you for the beautiful documentary. Really educational and lovely.
As a fellow bonita springs resident. Its awesome to learn about the history of my city from watching instead of looking at photos.
Born and raised in Naples. My family goes back to the 1800's here in SWFL. It sure has changed. Places I used to hunt and fish are golf courses. I miss the good old days!!!
