We gave the house a break today and headed over to Passe-a-Grill Beach, It was a perfect beach day on the Gulf side, unlike the awful storm hitting the other side of the peninsula.
This picture above is taken from Johns Pass at Madeira Beach. about 15 mins from our house. We went there to visit our new neighbors who own an action business and suggested we come to a warehouse they are liquidating. It was full of treasures. I filled a large box with glasses, plates, salt and peppers and a huge beautiful old seashell. They gave everything to me for $10 to welcome me to the neighborhood.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend. I hope if you are in the hurricane zone you stay safe.
Lovely treasures and a beautiful day, who could ask for more! I just know you are going to never want to leave your new hometown!

ReplyDeleteI love Florida (like about 50 million other Brits) but I don't know why. Life is so easy there - maybe that's it?
