Memorial Park

Memorial Park was rerenovated about a year ago. It is located in Stuart, Florida. I’m always impressed with how dedicated Florida is to their parks. I’m lucky enough…

Great White Egret

I really liked the wispy feathers on this egret.

Manatee Pocket Daytime

Same boat as yesterday but taken during the day.  Happy Valentine’s Day or better yet, happy birthday to my nephew, Jared!!

Manatee Pocket Sunset

This boat looked like someone abandoned it. It makes for a pretty picture.

Yellow Sunset

Forget the Blizzard of 2013 in the northeast…let’s look at pretty, warm, Florida photos! Last year, they were dredging Manatee Pocket when I was down there on vacation….

View from The Reef

Here’s the view from the outside deck of The Reef. It’s a great place to sit and have a drink. I’ve been transferring my photos from my camera…

Name Change

The Reef on the left has always been called Finz since we’ve been coming down to Florida. Other than the name change, it still looks the same. They…

Manatee Sunbathing

We stopped at a spot where my aunt mentioned she had seen a bunch of manatees. We were not disappointed, all those spots you see in the water…

Road Kill

We came across this scene on one of our morning walks in Florida. Not a pretty picture but a documentation of life.

Iron Ball

Sometimes it’s really hard to come up with a name for the photo of the day. I guess iron ball works or is it concrete? Just an interesting…

Statue of Liberty Girl Scout

I had shown photos a few weeks ago of the art show I went to in Florida. This statue was on the street as I was walking away…

Square Grouper Tiki Bar

When we got to the Jupitor Lighthouse the boat turned around and headed back home. This is the first time I’ve seen the Square Grouper Tiki Bar from…

Elaborate Homes

While the gorilla home was nice, especially it’s location along the intercoastal I think I’d much rather have one of these homes. Only if I had the money…

For Sale with Gorillas?

I’m not sure if the gorillas come with this house that is for sale or not. I’m guessing there has to be a good story behind why they…

The Other Park

I actually don’t know the name of this park but it’s not far from where we stay. Last year I showed some before and after photos of this…

Sandsprit Park

I mentioned back on February 3rd that Mom and I took a trip on the Island Princess while Dad stayed back and waited for the cable guy. We…

Tiki Bar

There were a few new changes in the Manatee Cove area and one of them was this addition of a Tiki Bar at the Pirate’s Cove Resort &…

Gourd Head

It works out nicely that the Hobe Sound Art Festival is usually the first weekend of February when I just happen to be down there. It’s a very…

Dredging Manatee Cove

While I was in Florida they were just finishing up dredging Manatee Cove. I think this may have been why we were able to see the manatee so…

Valentine Red

This flower seemed close enough for something red on Valentine’s Day. We came across it on one of our walks. Of course, today is a special day for…

A Dog’s Life

I think this dog had the best seat on the boat. After a cold day yesterday and a cold start to today I really wish I was back…

Setting Sun

It’s only a five minute walk from the condo to this area where I get the setting sun. Some year I should probably drive someplace to get a…

Parrots and a Manatee

In last Wednesday’s post I mentioned that Mom and I had seen parrots on our first morning walk as well as a baby manatee. I had posted a…

Island Princess

Yesterday, Mom and I took the Island Princess tour. Unfortunately, Dad had to stay home and wait for the cable guy. Since arriving in Florida we have not…
