Last Light

 

 

 

Sunset in Cozumel.

“I didn't ask for it to be over, but then again, I never asked for it to begin. For that's the way it is with life, as some of the most beautiful days come completely by chance. But even the most beautiful days eventually have their sunsets.”

Distant Shore

 

It was my first look
That's when I swallowed the hook
On my first look
Around

 

Amor a primeira vista
Voce nao, quer que o insista
Amor a primeira vista
Reacao quimica quimica

 

Now it's time for siestas
And a belly full of rice and beans
And figure if I'm brave enough
To repeat the whole crazy scene
~Jimmy Buffett

My camera recently took a quick dip in the pool and never recovered. As a result, this blog has been quite neglected lately. So, when we went to Mexico for a few days, we took the big camera with us for a change and ended up with a ton of photos. I love Cozumel. Always have. It's full of beautiful people, incredible views, delicious food and great shopping. We had an awesome trip and can't wait to go back.

Opa!

We went to the Greek Festival at the Emerald Coast Conference Center this past weekend. The theme for this year was "Our Big Fat Greek Festival" and it was definitely a great experience. There were lots of local artists there and the food was AMAZING! These photos are really dark and the only explanation I have is that we attended this immediately after that McGuire's brunch I mentioned earlier and I might have 'forgotten' to use a flash.

Irish Patience.

Recently, while waiting for McGuire's to open for brunch, we took a stroll along Destin Harbor. It had been a while since we'd been there and it was just as beautiful as ever. Also, surprisingly, it was bustling with tourists and they were throwing money all over the place. That was almost more beautiful than the view. It's been a rough Summer around here and it was nice to see a little normalcy before the season closes.
On a side note, if you look just beyond the bridge, you can see Crab Island, a local favorite.
