Kind of interesting, if you follow the coast to the west, there are a couple 
inlets and you'll see both small fishing skiffs and pleasure boats.  A 
little farther, you find Hemingway Marina, which looks pretty upscale.  The 
whole neighborhood looks kinda swank, in fact.

Google Earth is an interesting way to look at a place. Too bad they don't 
have ground view there.
