Demens Landing (11/17/25)

After most of the morning inside the condo on Monday waiting for the cleaning crew to arrive, Bob and I took Lulu out for a walk to a local cafe for a bagel. The cleaning crew comes every other week, so this is the one time we will have them, and since they have a number of workers, we only needed to kill an hour out of the condo while they worked. That was easily done by the walk to and from the bagel shop as well as dining time, as Lulu found lots of smells of interest along the route.

That afternoon, we just walked around Demens Landing, which is a small piece of land that juts into Tampa Bay between the St. Petersburg Pier and a small municipal airport.

The area and park is named after an immigrant from Russia,
who became a successful entrepreneur and named St. Petersburg after the capital city of Imperial Russia.
There is a marina immediately on either side of Demens Landing.

Demens Landing is the very end of the Pinellas Trail.
This is a mile marker for a few sights along the trail.
