Rich histories if these communities. For instance Tarpon Springs, a city on central Florida’s Gulf Coast. Greek eateries line waterfront Dodecanese Boulevard, locals say it is a legacy of the Greek sponge divers who settled here in the early 1900s. Along the water, the Historic Sponge Docks are a reminder of the once booming industry.

I will have to confess I was almost comatose through most of the day. I had taken some cold meds for a scratchy throat and runny nose. Oh my goodness it knock me on my butt and made me a zombie! Jim said we were there but my memory is vague.
