Honestly? We went to St. Petersburg yesterday for two reasons: have lunch in the oldest restaurant in Florida and to look at the property in the downtown area. This place is surrounded with waterfront facing the Gulf of Mexico and miles of Tampa Bay shoreline. This is a perfect place for us to find a vacation property. But, we are still on the lookout for other properties in nearby state that is why, we are checking on lowincome.org website.

Matanzas inlet was the scene of crucial events in Spanish colonial history. The massacre of French soldiers here in 1565 was Spain's opening move in establishing a colony in Florida. The construction of Fort Matanzas in 1740-1742 was Spain's last effort to ward off British encroachments on St.Augustine.- National Monument Florida (National Park Service) US Department of the Interior.
I used my time by taking pictures as we were waiting for the boat which was still on the Fort. The crossing of the Matanzas inlet is just short minutes and it's FREE.
My husband commented that this Fort is smaller than the Spanish Fort in the Ship Island in Mississippi. Looking at the picture, it is indeed tiny but, played a good defense in the war history between the British invasion.
The place is only 50 ft on each side and 30 ft tower and built with a local shell stone called Coquina. It is not the usual stone wall that we see in our homes. Lime for the mortar was made by burning oyster shells.A foundation of close-set pine pilings driven deep into the marshy ground thus, stabilized the Fort Matanzas.
This is the boat dock area, the surrounding view is truly worth seeing for! We probably visited the place for more than an hour. The Fort is a small place, I wonder how lonely it was for soldiers who were assigned here.
Here's the Anatomy of the Fort which comprises of the following: Parapet wall, white stucco which once covered the walls, powder magazine location, ladder (removable), lookout on the tower roof and two storey watchtower with canons defending the inlet.
Therefore, the Fort is a small place with the Chimney, observation deck, powder magazine area, officer's quarter, firearm loopholes, soldier's quarters and a sentry box area.
We saw this information as we head to the boat dock.
Here is the map of the Fort showing a wide range of history and important dates of significance.
This is the bulletin board for visitors who wanted to explore the park and the fort. me and hubby had a wonderful time in this place. You should visit Fort Matanzas in Saint Augustine Florida.
I love looking at the skies especially if it looks like this. It just gives me a feeling of peace and hope that tomorrow is another day! 
We will NEVER know how she died, how she suffered on her last day and how she beg for HELP at that moment! She's HELPLESS, she's only 2 years old! But, this we know: Caylee Anthony was tossed in the swamp, Caylee died in her shirt with "BIG TROUBLE" sign on it, Caylee's remain was left EATEN by ANIMALS in the woods, Caylee's body was badly decomposed and hid in the swamp, not meant to be found! Amidst all the search to find Caylee in 2008, people all over the country responded to the call of Amber Alert. Where is Caylee? The mom would say, oh she's kidnapped by the nanny, Zenaida Gonzalez!
The father who said "if I could switch places with you, I would do it!" How could someone willing to give up everything and that includes the death of her baby, breaking the relationship of her family FOR WHAT? Now, she is FREE! Legally FREE! She will enjoy a better LIFE! I salute to the defense team, Atty. Baez! The jury believe all the DOUBTS you instill into the minds of Jury! "I save a LIFE today," Baez said and what about the life of Caylee? This is not about Casey. This is about finding the killer of Caylee! What happen to Caylee? If this is the right JUSTICE then, HAILEY CUMMINGS is another Floridian baby who will experience the same FATE!

Hubby and I wanted to see the Courthouse to see the reaction of the crowd there. Sure enough, people are with in the vicinity hoping to get a slot for tomorrow's session. Today is Sunday but, the courthouse has a crowd of observers and media people. I saw Judge Alex of Fox Channel, a show who handle cases in small claims court. He was having lunch in a pizza place where we are. He was seated two tables from where we are. There were local media personality too and the whole place is overwhelming.
The Orange County Courthouse is located in Orange Avenue in Downtown Orlando. The whole complex has a 23-level courthouse tower with two five-story office buildings for the State Attorney and Public Defender. There is a car parking facility with 1,500 capacity. Today, we park nearby the courthouse just across the street and it's FREE parking every Sunday.
The High-volume courts and also Clerk of the Courts as well as the jury assembly area are located in the tower's four-story base. There is a special purpose courtroom on the 23rd level. I just knew this today too that there are dedicated elevators that carry the Judges, Inmates and the public to the courtrooms. The Judges travel from their chambers or secure basement parking and the inmates are shuttled from a basement holding area. The public can access from the main lobby. This is pretty interesting and safe for everybody! Anyway, outside the courtroom there were people who are debating about casey's behaviour just to be on TV. Some looks smart and educated but, mostly I saw weird people who are trying to be righteous! Well, in few days more, verdict will be serve. Where there will be JUSTICE FOR CAYLEE?
