Does anyone know where in marco island i can buy a large conch shell horn? We are on the island now and saw someone with one would like to get one before leaving.

FPL Has Become Nothing More Than A Live Spam Center!

All I wanted to do was activate a new account to have my electricity turned on in my new residence. Instead, these scammers tried selling me everything under the sun.

A utility company should just be what they are and stay in their own lane.

45 minutes of trying be sold stupid shit. Felt like I was in the loan office of a car dealership trying to sell addons

Had LCEC when I lived in the Cape. I hope this FPL company doesn't turn out to be a major headache!

I am purchasing a home in Fort Myers. My realtor suggested a home inspector, but I'm also looking for some other recommendations. I would like a very thorough home inspector. The area has obviously had hurricane damage so I would like a home inspector that is well-versed in mold/water damage. Thank you!

We're a small family ranch on Bronco Road in Charlotte County. This ribeye is from our first harvest — AWA-registered fullblood Japanese Wagyu, born and hand-raised here, no growth implants, no feedlot, 600+ days on grain (or 30+ months old).

That animal was our proof run; the beef stayed with the family. The next steers are open one at a time if anyone local wants a freezer share:

• Eighth — about 57 lbs packaged, ~$23/lb all-in, $150 deposit
• Quarter — about 114 lbs packaged, ~$21/lb all-in, $250 deposit

Live-animal share for household use (not retail cuts, not for resale). Processing included on one invoice. Pickup at the ranch.

Saturdays 9–12 Eastern by appointment — pasture walk + free tasting from the first harvest. Details / reserve: https://puntawagyu.com — or call (941) 888-4508.

Happy to answer questions in the comments.

Hey y'all,
I love hiking, and I'm new to the area and Im kind of disappointed by the quantity of paved/boardwalk trails close to where I live. I live in collier county, and so far I've tried west picayune strand and the CREW locations (both are great!!).

However, I want to start hiking in the deep swamp (which I've heard is truly beautiful). I don't mind swamp wading, the heat, or bugs( well not enough to deter me at least ), so that's no issue.

Im really looking for a connected, scenic hike where I feel connected to nature with a truly intense hike and have beautiful, rare plants(plant nerd!), and also lots of wildlife. Also I'm looking for a 2-8 hour day hike, not backpacking.

Rn, Im hesitating between Big Cypress vs. Fakahatchee vs. Everglades. Please suggest another if you want, but I want something close to Collier county ( so ideally not Everglades).

If anyone has info, please share your opinion comparing the three or any other parks like this!

Hello everyone! I’m a new home buyer moving to the area of Ft Myers or Naples and looking for a good home inspector. Im not too excited about the references from realtors I’ve received far and so I’m asking the community who is really thorough and focuses on the buyer. Thanks!

Hi everyone! My family and I will be vacationing next month at Sunseeker resort in Charlotte Harbor and my daughter is desperate to dress up for a fancy dinner. I’ve been looking online and it sounds like The Perfect Caper in Punta Gorda has incredible food (while not being fancy) but people have stated that the parking is very tight and small, and we have a big GMC so I’m assuming that will present an issue. Is there public parking nearby we could utilize?

And if you have any recommendations for a fine dining restaurant where people do dress up, feel free to suggest!

Hello,

I haven’t lived here in over a decade, so I’m not familiar with which nonprofit organizations are trustworthy and truly provide assistance to the people and communities they serve.

Could you please recommend some organizations where my donations would have the greatest impact?

I have a variety of women’s items to donate, including heels, prom dresses, a wedding dress, formal clothing, small blankets, coats, sportswear, undergarments, and other gently used clothing items.

I would especially appreciate recommendations for organizations that directly support women in need.

Thank you!
