benches on their dock.. guess some go out in the boat, while others wait their turn or just enjoy the view.. really enjoyed my drive-by view (pull over to the curb and snap!)... saw one home for sale.. might be able to afford the door knob... it was only 298K ! right !! ^SOOC *only cropped © All rights reserved

on Anna Maria Island .. near the museum .. sit - take in the beauty .. www.AMIHS.org "Surrounding Belle Haven Cottage is the Mangrove Walk. Thanks to two grants from the Sarasota Bay Estuary Program and the city of Anna Maria's Environmental Enhancement & Education Committee, the grounds of the Historical Park are ablaze in flora indigenous to Anna Maria Island. Not only is the area educational, it's a cool walk in yesteryear!" (This page explains the history of the cottage - some of it hilarious! It is on Pine Ave., near the old Jail.) -signed only © All rights reserved SOOC

© All Rights Reserved checked the weather forecast for the beach .. come on over .. know exactly where this bench is .. have photographed many sunsets from this spot .. don't forget sunscreen .. will pick up some snacks to tide us over until time to head for supper .. got to figure out what I'll put the wine in .. no alcohol is allowed ... hmmm... empty juice bottles headed for recycling ! perfect .. it'll take me a couple of hours to get here, so don't start without me ... see ya !

People walking out on the pier.. There is a restaurant at the end of the pier .. Also, many fisherpersons aided by brown pelicans.. Patient for any leftovers .. Or, might just swipe a catch from an unsuspecting newbie .. Tampa Bay water calmly surrounds the people pier and the closer, 'Pelican Perch Pier' .. ^SOOC ©SD All Rights Reserved

so curious.. make photo larger & look on top on the bench.. someone left a rolled up note with a key attached.. no, didn't look... do you have any idea how hard that was to Not do ? - 1 note - ^cropped only SOOC © All rights reserved
