Hey Jason ... i'm not sure yet. I'd love to go, but i think this one i might just watch on TV ... unless you happen to have something in the 600mm+ range ... forget about taking pictures.
I went up for the Return to Flight mission STS-114 & had premium launch access tickets .. and the closest we got with them was either 4 or 6 miles, other than that you're about 10 miles away from the pad.

LFS day it is

Yesterday i got the RO/DI system all plumbed up ... i should take a picture ... maybe tonight. Going to come by & check it out scott?
 
in the naples bonita area there is a store called "Saltwater Solutions" its right off US41 in the naples industrial park. Its the nicest one I've been to in the area. Prices are fair for a fish store and they have a big place and a lot o chose from, helpful staff ect.

Other stores include "Fish Central" on Davis Blvd in Naples, Good stuff just a lil pricey for my taste, worth a look thou.

And "Ocean Enviroments" on Pine Ridge Road in Naples. This store is hit and miss IMO, sometimes they have nice stuff, sometimes welll you get it.
 
well ... we hit up ... 5 stores.

Ocean Enviroments (Ft. Myers) decent
Ocean Enviroments (Naples) decent
Saltwater Solutions (Naples) Nice
2 stores in the cape ... same owner ... 1 of them is by the hospital
and the new store in S. Fort Myers, by Northern Tools - right near walmart on 41 & gladiolus. - probably the nices & cleanest store ... VERY helpful & friendly.

Boardroom aquatics behind office depot in fort myers is nice also.
Big variety of fish, kind of pricey though.
