| Clark's Fish Camp Jacksonville, FL |
| What a nice day. We had planned this trip a while back, but as we passed through Melrose we saw a Tea party going on. We stopped at a red light, I looked at Marcia and asked her if she was interested, she was. I looked at Wayne, he too was interested. It was very interesting, and we were glad that we stopped. We were there a lot longer than we thought we would be. So we missed our trip to Clark’s fish camp. It’s ironic, but the day before we make this trip, Wayne had posted this trip again but for some reason Marcia and I could not make the trip with them. So after hearing Wayne tell us about the trip, we too posted the trip one more time, and made it the next day. |
| On this trip there is Marcia & I, Jill, John & Kim, and Steve & Missy. Steve’s bike was not running right so they took their car. This is our first stop we are in Green Cove Springs, and as usual we are having a good time, and looking forward to the fish camp. |
| We just finished parking, and taking all our gear off. It was a nice ride over here, going through Penny Farms through the tree canopy is always a pleasant sight. Crossing the Saint Johns river on the Shands bridge is also a neat sight to see. And highway 13 heading north is also a nice road to ride. I did notice that the advertisement signs, where all low to the ground. I am used to seeing a Burger King sign way up high in the air. We had been in this area before looking at boats a few years back. As a matter of fact we bought our first motorcycle at one of the marina’s here in town. So in a way, this area is really were our motorcycle adventures began. I never thought that we would get so addicted to motorcycle riding. |
| Now I like looking at this picture, it’s pretty much what I had pictured in my mind. The one thing that I was surprised about we did not see any alligators. But when you think of a fish camp and a restaurant this is it. The restaurant has a large sitting area inside, and a good size outside eating area too. |
| I like that rustic look, it reminds me of some of the old Marinas that as a kid I had been in. As I got older I noticed that most of the marina’s that I had been in are no longer in existence. Usually it is replaced by a very modern marina. I miss the old marinas, the smoke and smell of the old two strokes engines. |
| Now this is where things change, like I said before we have seen a lot of restaurants with that rustic look with a beautiful setting on the lake or river and had enjoyed each one, but when you go inside of this restaurant you see all these trophies, stuffed animals all over the place. Not just native animals, but animals from all over the world. It will catch your curiosity, and have you exploring inside the restaurant. They have quite a collection of animals Lions tigers monkeys it just keeps going. It will definitely get your attention, also their menu is the same it has all kinds and meats on it. We will be back. |
| Here are just some of the pictures I took inside to give you an idea what it looks like. |
