We are transplanted North Shore residents, who moved to this general area (about a1/2 hr from St Pete), when our daughter & son in law were transferred to FL & asked us to please move with them 2 yrs ago. But, Mass & Gloucester will always be home. We keep in touch via GMG, & thought that since you’re in the St Pete area, we’d recommend a few places we think you’d like. We agree that St Pete has a pretty cool vibe- they’ve done a great job there. The Imagine Museum is worth a visit. if you have time, you might want to visit Dunedin, only about 1/2 hr from St Pete. It’s a small seaside town with a Scottish heritage. Al Fresco Cafe has good food & a nice ambiance. While in Dunedin, be sure to take the Causeway to Honeymoon Island. You can take a beach walk there at North Beach, if you have time & the inclination. We miss Gloucester, Mass & New England, Harbor Cove Dental, walking the blvd by the Fisherman’s Statue, and more…….But, we didn’t miss the 10′ of snow that Mass just rec’d. We also feel lucky that the GOAT is here with the Bucs. Gronk too. Have a great time! JB & Family
