Sunny

"Of all domestic animals the cat is the most expressive.  His face is capable of showing a wide range of expressions.  His tail is a mirror of his mind.  His gracefulness is surpassed only by his agility.  And, along with all these, he has a sense of humor." - Walter Chandoha

Anna Maria Island - "Write your troubles in the sand, carve your blessings in stone."

Once a best-kept secret among local Floridians... Today, it is now known as a vacation favorite among local, national and international travelers.  I got an opportunity to spend a day on this gorgeous white-sand beach with my high school friend, Casey & her family.  It was a fun-filled day spent writing in the sand, building sandcastles & swimming with young Talyor.  Aaaaaah!  Ya gotta love the SUNSHINE state, especially in Winter!!!  :-)

Devil's Milhopper Geological State Park

"In the midst of north Florida's sandy terrain and pine forests, a bowl-shaped cavity 120 feet deep leads down to a miniature rain forest.  Small streams trickle down the steep slopes of the limestone sinkhole, disappearing through crevices in the ground.  Lush vegetation thrives in the shade of the walls even in dry summers.  A significant geological formation, Devil's Millhopper is a National Natural Landmark that has been visited by the curious since the early 1880s.  Researchers have learned a great deal about Florida's natural history by studying fossil shark teeth, marine shells and the fossilized remains of extinct land animals found in the sink.  Visitors can enjoy picnicking and learn more about this sinkhole through interpretive displays."

Elvis Incognito, LOL!


As a law enforcement officer, I have come to adore & respect German Shepherd K-9s - this is my dear friend Maribel's beloved dog, Elvis.  Thank you Elvis for taking a pool break to pose for this furr-ever keepsake!

Cedar Key

As you leave the Florida mainland, rich Gulf waters reflecting blue skies beckon you as birds float like petals over the marsh vista. Welcome to our island, a place where time stands still and allows you to enjoy the unique qualities of our coastal environment. Cedar Key is a quiet island community nestled among many tiny keys on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Long admired for its natural beauty and abundant supply of seafood, it is a tranquil village, rich with the almost forgotten history of old Florida. Step inside our paradise and stay awhile...
