It's What I Do...

Finally, the temps got back above the 60's. Yes I know, my Yankee friends, that's not cold. Well it is for us natives of the Sunshine State! Although I love cold weather, it is a pain to suit up in layered clothes and throw on a bunch of leather to ride the motorcycle. Remember windchill? If it's only 50 degrees and your doing 70mph on the scooter...that's chilly!! Well, I broke out the ride and took off toward the beaches. I do some of my best thinking when I drive. So I was thinking...I have a very close and dear friend that has been a little sick. She was down in the dumps and I of course did what friends do and sent her a card. But then I thought, she likes sunsets. So I got to the beach and went to one of my favorite eateries called "The Hurricane". They have a roof top bar and some of the locals and lots of the tourist go there to watch the sunsets. Funny, they take pictures and then they all applaud when the sun sets...like it's not going to do that!! Anyway, I snapped a shot of ol' Sol myself. I just used a simple little Nikon Cool Pix L4. I took it home and added some photoshop text and sent it to her. I'm hoping it will cheer her up. I really like to use my photography to make people smile, because it's what I do. mws
