Driving directions to the location and spot to meet at:

Directions are to the Tropic Star Ferry, where we will meet at 1:00 p.m. on Friday 3/27.  From I-75, take exit 143, just north of the Caloosahatchee River, and go west on Highway 78 (Pine Island Rd.) all the way pass Matlacha to County Road 767 in Pine Island.  Turn right (north) towards Bokeelia, and in 6.5 miles turn right onto Barrancas Ave.  Go five blocks, and it will sort of dead end at the Jug Creek Marina, where Ferry is located.  You will need to make reservations for the Tropic Star Ferry, and their number is (239) 283-0015.  You can make other time arrangements with them, but please let me know if you are doing so.  I will then give you the tent site numbers, and you can meet us there.
