A Perfect Boca Grande Day...

Our morning trip begins....
We paddle through the clear waters....

To Little Gasparilla Island where stands the house 
with the 
turquoise roof.

Our little boats rest in the sun as we explore.
Back home we go....
It was....
A Perfect Day!

Sitting on the back porch...
What do I see?

Beautiful flowers...
And a smiling puppy
looking at me.

My favorite place to park....

At the very end of the island...
I often rested at this spot.


Warm tropical sunshine....

The perfect day under the healing sun....




How fast can you run?.....

As storm approaches...
Waiting....
Watching....
Ready..Set...Run!

Snow Day.....

Come and play...
There is lots of new snow to enjoy.
It's a little deep for small doggies...
But lots of fun.
Come play again soon.

A Waiter's Ballet...

Last Saturday evening our family 
converged in Chicago for a lovely weekend of
togetherness.
We were treated to a 
magnificent dinner at 
The Club International at the Drake Hotel.
It was a wonderful evening of family and food.
As we were enjoying our dinner and conversation,
a beautiful ballet was taking place behind us.
A well rehearsed choreography of impeccable 
service whirled around us...
their whispery images captured by the camera.




It was a privilege to be a guest in their dinning room.
To be treated to the highest standard of service.

And then...
as quietly and selfless as they appeared...
they left us alone..
to enjoy our last cup of coffee..
and our last few moments of a 
memorable family gathering.

Photography credits go to
my very talented brother in law,
Dave.

First Snow...

The first blast of winter is always a thrill...
And finding a cozy spot to spend the day...
That's even better.
