My mother sure picked a great place to retire in southwest Florida! Here is one of the many public beaches in Sarasota County -- Casperson Beach just south of Venice on the Gulf of Mexico. You can walk for miles in a natural setting. Sharks teeth are plentiful. Loggerhead turtles lay their eggs in its sand. Sea birds dart in and out of the surf. Sunsets are gorgeous. It's often warm at Christmas! |
