For my segment, I hit on two ideas, one about history of the area (as I am a history buff); the second idea being all the very cool places to go kayaking in Southwest Florida USA. I have already explored a LOT of them.
While I am based in Naples, my Grup + Associates Coastal Properties team is based in Bonita Springs, Florida. So I suggested we paddle the Imperial River in Bonita. And I am pleased, and very honored, to announce it is a winner!

We met shortly before 7 am one morning last week. Larry Kain producer of SoWeFlo Life, John Paeno and Aaron Thomas, co-owners of CGT Kayaks and Paddleboards, and I set out at sunrise to explore this black-water river and see what kind of wildlife was up and about. We saw great blue herons, turtles, cormorants, woodpeckers, and more. More importantly, we showcased a great place to kayak in SWFL.
What a great morning, and I'm very pleased with the online segment Larry Produced. No matter where you paddle, may your day be one filled with exploration of new areas, seeing new wildlife, and generally getting away for just a little bit from the mayhem of work and everyday life.
Living in Southwest Florida is a lifestyle move for many. I work every day, sometimes seven days a week during our busy winter real estate season. As we often say here, "I live where you vacation." Even when I am working, I love showing off this area of the USA, and am thrilled to have been able to showcase a really great place to paddle.
Hopefully the response will be positive enough that John R. Wood Properties will ask me to host another paddling trip on a different waterway here in Southwest Florida!
