We ventured out of "the park" today for a bit of a road trip.
We were here.
And could be here.
Our neighbor snapped a shot of the northern estate after this morning's 4" snow fall.
I think I like it here at the beach just a little bit more at the moment.
Anyway, we went over to Clearwater Beach west of Tampa on the gulf and walked a couple miles of the beach.
It has to be the most powdery sand I've ever been on. It's like drywall dust and about that white as well.
We ambled down the beach wading along the way.
I'll wager no one is cooling their feet off in the surf on the Great Lakes right now.
The water temperature was probably around 75°. A little refreshing at first, but very comfortable after a couple minutes.
We went to a local eatery "Cooters" for their Tuesday all you can eat crab. Then shopped our way back to the car.
I ran across this little plaque in one of the shops. Seems like the way to do it...at least around these parts.
It was a fun day...certainly better than shoveling snow.
