My husband and I went out this afternoon in my Mustang with the convertible top down. I had told my son that we would be back in about an hour. We didn’t come back for almost four hours.
It was just too nice out! The sun was shining and we were enjoying the music on the stereo and each other’s company so Hubby said, “Let’s go for a ride.” We drove down the gulf coast, through Clearwater Beach, Sand Key, Belleair Beach, Indian Rocks Beach, Redington Beach, Madeira Beach, through Treasure Island Beach and all the way to the tip of St. Petersburg Beach. OMG what a perfect day!
This is a peek at Treasure Island Beach. I didn’t take this picture but I’ve been there many times and yes, it is gorgeous like this. White sand as far as the eye can see. We got eyefuls of beach scenery today and it’s really good for the soul. Whenever I want to feel better, I am blessed that I live less than 1500 feet from the gulf and so I have access to a water view whenever I want.
Tonight we went grocery shopping and then when we got home I ordered pizza (for the men, I didn’t have any) and we watched The Day the Earth Stood Still. Eh, it was okay. After the movie I popped in a DDR disc and put in a full hour. It was really fun because it was one I bought a long time ago and couldn’t play it because it was too hard. I must have gotten a bit better at it because I could play it this time! It kicked my butt though, because almost every song was really fast!

Hi, Wow that sounds like a great day!
I am in my third week of a restricted-carb diet, I’m going to poke around your blog for some ideas and encouragement…
What a perfectly grand day. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely beach - I am a teensy bit jealous as I am still waiting for the ice to leave the bays here.
Wow. What an absolute beautiful place to live. And good shrimp too, I’m imagining….
We are looking at the green returning to the land after a winter of snow. It’s beautiful too, but oh that beach!
it was HOT today. A little glimpse of what’s to COME! OH NO… 90 today, 94 tomorrow, 95 Wednesday…. oh man, we’re screwed, it’ll be 115 before you know it. That’s it for the wonderful spring weather. Although the night is perfect right now. I should be out walking but I’m tired. Did my exercise already today, and probably tired from a weeks worth of poor eating choices. Maybe I’ll plan a walk tomorrow night!
my sister and I moved to florida about 5 yrs ago. she came 3 months before me. when she first came down here she lived in holiday florida, right by st. pete. My hubby and I decided to come to cape coral. that is where we live now (near Fort myers). my sis moved here too after her divorce. so you are probably only 2-3 hrs away from me
maybe, just maybe one day we can go to the beach together
