My wife and I are thinking about taking a trip to Fla. And maybe
doing some fishing. Any suggestions?


I have a suggestion: Forget the swamps. Tramp your way around the
Pacific NW instead. Start in Coeur D'Alene and take a riverboat ride
up the St. Joe and play a couple rounds of golf on the floating green.
If you leave early then you can get to Spokane in time for Hoopfest
(http://www.hoopfest.org/). Then head West and catch a concert at the
Gorge Amphitheatre. Move on to Puget Sound for some awesome fishing,
spend the next day on a drive up the Olympic Mountains (something you
can never imagine until you see them firsthand), head back for a day
browsing on the piers including the Old Curiosity Shop where they have
a couple mummies and lots of other oddities. Eat at the rotating
restaurant on the Space Needle and see a great view of the most
dangerous volcano in the US (Mt. Rainier), visit a couple excellent
breweries, etc. When you get bored with the big city just head South
on I-5 for some small-town life in the Willamette Valley, like the
Timber Carnival (lumberjack stuff like tree-topping, log-throwing,
etc), and chill at the evening concerts in Monteith Park in Albany
where you can hear some big names in Jazz.

Of course if you like hot swamps and alligators that's fine, too.
