Warm Shot

This is one of my wife's favorite pics from our anniversary trip. Shot from Anna Maria Island, Tampa Bay waters, of the Anna Maria pier.

If you are in cold weather (like most of the country is!) maybe this can generate some warm and fuzzy thoughts :)

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

My wife and I are enjoying some much appreciated R&R to celebrate 10 years of marriage together. We will also be enjoying some time with family for Chrtmas over the next little bit.

I wanted to let my readers know that for the next few days leading up to and through Christmas I'll be sharing some pics and short thoughts from our journeys and time with family with you. Please enjoy, and may God bless you as you celebrate this wonderful time of year with those you love.

By the way, the pic above is a shot of the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico, taken Sunday night. Our view is absolutely gorgeous!

Back Home

South Beach Babies

Back home....

After a crazy day of traveling, I pulled into the house last night a little after 12:30 am. The day started in Palm Beach Gardens, on to South Beach, Miami, to the Miami Airport, to Charlotte, then Knoxville, Corbin, and then finally back to Somerset, KY. After a busy time in Florida for work and the travel home, I'm whooped.

It was so good to be back home and with my family. When the kids woke up this morning, I had the chance to give them big hugs and then pull some goodies out of my bag that I brought home for them. Fun moments for sure...

Below are a few more photos from my trip to southern Florida, including South Beach as well as a great place for seafood there - CJ's Crab Shack on Ocean Drive.

Enjoy!

Missing mí familia, but the scenery is nice. Check out some more pics from the road...

[By the way, I haven't figured out a way to post multiple pictures to one post yet on my Android, so the pics are spread across multiple entries, enjoy!]

Who Didn't Tell?

To finish out this week, I am doing some traveling for work along with other members of our team. We have been working hard to prepare for a conference where we will be showcasing our product and vision.

The conference is being held at the beautiful PGA National Resort in Florida. This is actually my first trip to Florida and I am loving the weather and scenery here.

What I want to know is who didn't tell me just how beautiful Florida is?!

Just kidding. Sort of.

The state is beautiful, at least I can say that about this area. Down here in southern Florida it seems it's an endless summer.

Not a bad gig I must say.
