Love Florida Style

It was a blustery day and storms threatened. As the sun weakly rose above the dense cloud banks, a man was at work sweeping the sand. At first I thought he was raking the sand smooth, repairing the beach from someone’s sand castle the day before. when I got closer I found he was creating a large heart in the sand.

Brent of Better Together Weddings was creating the stage for a couple’s dream ceremony at the beach. They braved the wind and the stormy skies and were rewarded with the sun brightening for a little while.

Best wishes!

Go Fly a Kite

Since it is only a block or so away, I head to the beach almost every morning to watch the sunrise. I never know what the dawn will offer. Will the cool wind or threat of rain mean I have the beach virtually to myself or will there be a big audience for the sun’s debut? Will I find a calm sea and a sky washed in soft pastels or a churning surf under steely blue clouds? Will I see more pelicans, gulls, and sand runners or birds of the human variety?

 

This day the wind was blowing and the surf pounding — prefect for a little kite flying.

Look like fun?
