Taking a Day Off ... Eric Stone Live ... Finally!

The Nav-A-Gator Bar & Grill on the Peace River north of Punta Gorda is somewhat of an institution.  We've never been there in all our years in this area.

Eric Stone is a household (boat-hold?) name with sailors.  He plays wonderful music ... live at most boat shows, usually at a free party put on by Bob & Jody Bitchin of Cruising Outpost (formerly Lats & Atts) fame. 

Before today we had never heard him live, even though we own two of his CD's.  So when friends told us he was playing at the Nav-A-Gator Bar from 2 - 5 PM, we decided to drop by after our afternoon at the beach.  What a great idea!

As an added benefit, I found out that Kim Hess, Eric's new bride of one week, had her Yoga Aboard book for sale.  So, having wanted this book for some time, I wandered up, introduced myself AND bought the very first copy of Kim's "Yoga Aboard" book autographed with her new name, Kim Hess Stone!   As Bob Bitchin would say "how kewl is that!".   If you want one for yourself, visit Tropica Yoga or Amazon, click here.

The Nav-A-Gator Bar & Grill is totally different from the bars we see in this city. They have function on a broad daylight and there is a live band. If you desire to chill and just have a good drink with your good friends that will totally take you away from the problems that you have, it would be ideal to visit this bar located in Peace River north of Punta Gorda. Obviously, you had a short yet great experience there, and I couldn't be happier for you because you had a break and that is what makes me really happy! I am hoping to experience it too.
