Yes...and that water feature is most impressive. Thanks for that!

Interesting....an unknown location for me - thanks!

Yes, thanks. Always fun to cart around that area. And that under the road MMP tunnel out of Saddlebrook has got to be one of the lowest clearances in the MMP network.

Yes it is - most impressive - but not sure that is an interest for her. I'm taking her to Everglades Rec as she loves national parks. TV did an excellent job of setting up the interior with highlights of many of the major parks. If you're into parks and haven't been to Everglades - take yourself there as you won't be disappointed.

It may take some time for them to get used to driving in a cart one foot away from the curb on the right while a car is driving one foot away on the left.

That's a good point. And she has never been in a cart before...but she has a wild side and specifically asked about wanting to ride in a cart. We'll see how the reality of it hits her!

Also the tiny neighborhood right next to Sumter. The houses look like something you'd see on Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket or Cape Cod. Can be done at the same time as the Morse bridge.

And?

Yes, we often see sandhill cranes along the Hogeye Sink walking/biking trail but golf carts are forbidden along that trail.

In fact, golf carts are forbidden along all of the beautiful walking/biking trails south of Route 44. We have seen several armadillos along those trails and even saw a very large black bear a few weeks ago.
