Please don't print another article about Venice, Fl. We live there 8 1/2 months of the year and you are absolutely right it's everything anyone could hope for. It's quaint town and shops, with wonderful eaterys you can walk of a night in safety plus, the beach is remarkeable, the jetty is fabulous and the sunsets are breath taking. Let's keep it a secret.

The masses show up and it is good-bye Venice. Like the rest of South Florida.
People pollution.

just wanted to thank you for such an enjoyable read. our daughters are down from Chicago, heading for Caspersen Beach, and I happened upon your article, which I quickly sent to her cell. your writing is both very, very good, and, by definition, rare. what a gift to find it and appreciate it on Independence Day. Not really sure what the holiday has to do with it, but threw it in. thanks!
