Description
While legend has it tht Ponce de leon discovered the Fountain of Youth on Florida's east coast there is little evidence to support the claim. There is, however, historical evidence that de Leon explored the southwest coast of Florida. Ounta Gorda is a city at the mouth of Charlotte Harbor. It is believed Pnce had a camp here.
This is Ponce de Leon Park, a tribute to the explorer. This shot was taken at high tide. Last time I visited the park there was a very low tide and instead of water these trees were surrounded by mud flats ane we were able to walk along the shoreline.
