Can anyone tell me what kind of snake this is? I am not worried about him being venomous, because he isn't any of the venomous snakes in this area... but I'd like to know, all the same.

Just thought I'd share a few shots from this evening's "date" which consisted of a walk around Celebration, after dinner. This first one just struck me as lovely... the way the late afternoon / early . . .

I've been wanting to go to Sea World again for a while, but every time we have time to play, my husband either decides to go to Universal Studios again, or he "accidentally" takes a wrong turn and we . . .

Let me start by telling you that I love roller coasters, for many reasons. I've always loved them. I love that sheer terror of being at the top of a steep incline, sure that I'm going to plummet to my . . .

This is just a few of the shots I took of Saturday’s spectacular sunset off Sanibel Island, Florida. I just spent most of the last two hours compiling a photo essay which, once I hit "submit," vanished. . . .

Saturday's visit to Islands of Adventure:
It began with some spectacular weather, and after a stressful week for both of us, we were ready for some fun.
We went first to sit for a bit and . . .

OK, so not everyone would think this is so special, but I do. This has been our landscape here since yesterday. I live in Central Florida, and from what I hear, we have not had such a cold snap since . . .

It was a dreary, grey day, raining for hours. The grey soaked through my bones and brain; I was weary and barely keeping my eyes open, when suddenly, I noticed that the sun had come out.

There is a place just up the road from me which my husband adores...
It's called Old Town, and is located in Kissimmee, Florida. It's a collection of a few nostalgic shops, a small carnival and a handful . . .

I took a two year break from Universal Studios, beginning in 2007. Memorial Day Weekend of this year, we returned, to see whether it had gotten any more "exciting" since the last time. Of course, on our . . .

In July of 2006, I was driving south down I-4 one afternoon, when I saw ahead of me an unusual sight. It looked like a jet contrail, but seemed to rise from the ground, and was an odd color. Orange-ish. . . .

We often see hot air balloons as we drink our morning coffee on the patio. This morning was special, in that there were ten of them visible at the same time. Of course, we didn't have the camera ready, . . .

We get frequent balloon fly-overs around here, but only twice have I seen one land, and this time, I got a chance to photograph it coming down. Now, if only it was one of the pretty ones!

My husband and I live near Disney World, and also nearby is a lesser known place called Celebration, or Celebration Station, Florida. We have come to love Celebration, as it is small and quiet. The prices . . .

This summer has had its ups and downs. We normally spend a few weekends of the year at the beach, on one Florida coast or the other. This year, mostly due to gas prices, we have stayed "home" . . .
