A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Beach: True Tall Tales of Zany Animals and Crazy People Making Mayhem in the Mangroves of Florida - Paperback

by Margit Heiss (Illustrator), Bernard Rath (Author)

For almost a decade the author ferried thousands of people to and from the parking lot to Clam Pass Beach in Naples Florida. The vehicle known locally as a Tram is a seven passenger stretch golf cart limo. There are more than 60 of them in service in the Pelican Bay area of Naples. The 3/4 mile long trip takes place on an elevated boardwalk through a pristine saltwater estuary that hosts a goodly amount of flora and fauna. The former consists of primarily red, white and black mangrove trees. But the fauna. Oh, the fauna. Someone should write a funny book about the fauna and the people. Wait, this is it. Zany animals and crazy people making mayhem in the mangroves of Florida.
