Long time island band, The Trouble Starters, played for a small, gracious crowd.  As I breathed the salty air, with the gigantic moon over the bay, and the sound of water slapping against the docks, I thought how lucky I was to be on Captiva that night.  They play randomly at Jensen’s, so if you have the opportunity to hear them, don’t miss it!  Click below for more pictures.

A breezy evening set the stage for the SCCF Welcome Back Wine Tasting Fundraiser.  Catering was by Leslie Adams, and an assortment of 6 wines from New Zealand, California, Argentina, Australia, South Africa, and Tasmania.  This is the foundation’s 41st anniversary, no better way to kick off the season than with a wine tasting featuring “critters” on the bottle label or in the name!  Click here for more pictures.

Here is what some of the readers of the Daily had to say about our site!

I was in a store next to the Light House Cafe at the beginning of Sept. and you were selling an ad to the store owner.  You gave me your card and now I have you on my favorites list. I love the website. Thanks for cluing me into it.
