We are on the phone daily with clients from all over the USA, Canada and Europe. Recent conversation seems to turn to the weather. The northern states and Canada are enjoying cooling temperatures and the beautiful colors with the turning of the leaves. Colorado has turned quite chilly.
Well, here on the beach in Tampa Bay we actually had a cold wave come through yesterday! That means highs only up to mid-80's and lows hovering around 70! Hummm... so last night with the sliding doors open, we listened to the sounds of the rolling waves from the Gulf of Mexico and felt the gentle breeze as we slept. This, of course, after witnessing one of the more spectacular sunsets!
Sunsets here on the west coast of Florida are always special. Every night of the year Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach holds their sunset festivities 2 hours before and after sunset with live entertainment, food and handicrafts. Often, we will walk along the beach and find people mesmerized at the colors changing throughout the sun setting. Inevitably, we will offer to take pictures of couples with the sunset behind them. Beach weddings are a favorite all along the beach communities and sunset photos are a must for a romantic bride and groom.
Each night, depending on the cloud formation and probably a million things only a climatologist would understand, we watch as shades of blues and aqua begin to mix with pinks and corals... and then on the lucky night - the fiery reds like in the photo we took last night. Just wanted to share it!
It was an amazing sunset last night. I stopped the car to make sure my boys took time to appreciate how lucky we are to live here!
