Additional comments:

This was our second county park visit this month. The first was in the Miami area and this one is near Tampa/St. Pete and yet they both seem to be in need of some simple maintenance. Broken locks on the bathroom stalls and missing clothes hooks in the shower stalls. Simple and inexpensive things to repair.



Until next time
