Backyard Tourism







I'm a fan of backyard tourism.... especially if you live somewhere (marginally) tropical. It's important to keep in mind that people from far and wide spend years saving their pennies just so they can enjoy the scenery that I'm fortunate enough to wake up to everyday. So rather than look elsewhere to spend my time, I've been taking lots of weekend trips lately. Sometimes all you need is a few hours to escape, unwind, soak up the sun and enjoy the breeze. When Monday rolls around, you feel completely refreshed! The first picture (the tree-lined street) is Royal Poinciana Way, which is the main street entering Palm Beach, Fla. The other pics are of Juno Beach and Ocean Blvd.

Four Score and 7 years ago....

That title doesn't really mean much- I was just thinking of something random, yet patriotic, to start this blog entry off right. Well it's the 4th of July (or Independence Day as it were) and I'm home, relaxing. Had a nice family day- that was great and I'm looking forward to hours of sheer lazines to start my week off. Monday was an optional day off at my company. Can't believe people actually chose to work tomorrow. Silly people. I for one will be sleeping until mid morning- early afternoon. No other plans for tomorrow except, perhaps, doing some much needed bonding with my TV. Yes, unapologetically lazy is what I will be tomorrow.
