I hope your sister is doing well! Some are fortunate enough to have only mild symptoms bigsmile

Enjoy your time in Naples! I have been to Fort Walton Beach, not sure how far that is from where you are :thinking: Those beaches sure are beautiful love Looking forward to seeing more pics happy


Hi Dee waving :heart:

Other than being really tired, she's doing well. She says she feels a little better each day.

I went to the zoo today... had to find something to do until check-in time. Tomorrow I'm going to the Botanical Gardens.

Fort Walton Beach is a little far, haha. It's up in the Panhandle. Near Destin Beach, where I went last October. I might visit the Naples beach, super early though. It's crazy busy around here later in the day.

Fort Myers Beach was lots of fun. If it hadn't been so crowded there, I wouldn't have minded staying a couple of more days.

Time Square, the main entrance to the beach...


Early morning is the best time to walk the beach...


This little fella thinks so too...

Had lunch at the Pierside Grill. This was the view from where I was sitting...



By noon time the beach filled up, holy cow I don't think I've ever seen it so busy at a beach. Not even in Miami...

Sunrise this morning..



Backyard to the motel I stayed at...


I'll definitely miss the little haven in the backyard, it was like a little hideout in the middle of the busiest area of the beach. I was only a three minute walk to time square.

Thanks Stormy & Delightful... That's definitely food for thought.

My trip to Botanical Gardens in Naples was amazing! love A two mile trail of beautiful gardens with botanicals from several different countries. I took a ton of pictures, I will post some in the morning.

I wonder if the my pictures on the photo hosting site are copywrite protected? Hmmm, I'll have to check into that.

I'm in Key Largo now. Between yesterday's mess up with the motel room and then again today with the other place, I took it as a sign from the Universe that it was time to go home.

Cool news is my niece, her husband, and the boys are going on a little vacation tomorrow. So I get to house sit until Friday. That gives me time during the week to make my place more cozy... and a little more suitable for living, haha! Definitely still needs a lot of work!

River,

What are you taking the pictures with? Cell? Camera? If it is with your cell, I wanna get the same one. The pictures are absolutely gorgeous.

Hey Poetry waving Thank you! flowerforyou
It's actually my phone, I upgraded just before I left. It did such a wonderful job, that I have severely neglected my camera, lol.

It's a Samsung Galaxy 21 FE 5G, I got a super good deal on it through T-Mobile. happy
