Hi Jerry,
I live east of Chardon. I also go to North Chagrin quite a bit. In fact, I was there three times last week and again today. Do you know Roz and Koren? I normally meet them up there.
Our vacation to Florida last year was wonderful. We have a friend that has a home on Marco Island and we stayed there for two weeks. We are hoping to go again in May and then back again in Sept if all goes well. Ding Darling was an amazing place. I'm sure you will have a good time in Florida, birding should be great and getting away from this terrible Ohio weather is a plus... I took a look at your photos....very very nice!
