If you have not been to Bonita Springs on your travels, you should! It has changed so much in the last few years, new businesses, new development. The revitalized public areas like Riverside Park are amazing. They have great Christmas lights and festive activities. Recently they have added a food truck park (see the pics). There is a craft cocktail lounge and a brewery. Not forgetting Grandpa’s Pizza, famously rated by Dave Portnoy. There is an amazing live outdoor music venue opening in January called The Sugarshack. Not forgetting the old roadside attractions like The Wonder Gardens and Shangri-La Springs. It’s great for all ages. ... lots going on, check it out.

The Island Hopper Songwriter Fest outdid themselves last night at “The Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina”. “iHeart Radio” were one of the sponsors and MC’d the event. The opening act was the talented Katrina Cain followed by the headlining act Scotty McCreery. Scotty was “American Idol’s” series 10 winner and is a recent inductee to “The Grand Ole Opry”. He put on a killer poolside performance. Everyone was singing and dancing along to a set that included a mix of his many hits and some well known country covers. The event nearly didn’t happen at all. The pool opened literally a couple of hours before the event. Hurricane Helene had dumped copious amounts of sand in the pool. So hats off to the Pink Shell for making this happen! A quick mention to another local company-Techtronics who supplied the amazing sound system. They supply audio and visual equipment all over the world. Thanks to the Lee County Visitor Convention Bureau, all the sponsors and participants. I know we had a blast!

DON’T WORRY- no one was harmed in the making of this video! 🤣

Issac Newton Rutland was buried in 1916. His tombstone is the tallest and, in later years was used by aviators to locate their approach to Casa Ybel’s grass airstrip. Have you been?
