Apparently I'm going to be chronically late on posting until years end - fair warning. Of course I made up the schedule so does it count? Anyway, been in Naples, than Miami, and now back in Naples. Florida weather is balmy on both coasts although we spent a rare weekend in Miami where it rained virtually the whole time. I know ole man winter is visiting a lot of areas suddenly so no complaining here. Crested Butte has gotten a ton of snow the past couple of weeks making the locals quite happy. I've been in Florida just long enough to make snow seem quite unreal.

Naples is strangely quiet, as in the calm before the storm. Lots of people (aka the snowbirds) come down in fall but then backtrack to their northern homes for the holidays. January is officially the start of the mad season which lasts through April. I'll enjoy the quiet while I can.
Rainbows happen everywhere it seems. A nice omen for the Xmas season, hopefully. I'm right in the middle of the holiday madness, order now, wrap later. Christmas in Virginia with those precious little girls Penny and Jules. 2 1/2 and 5 are great ages for the magic of Christmas!
Mark's holiday office party in Miami was a blazing success. Done in typical Miami fashion: high energy, blasting music, a lot of high fashion, and lots of multi culture food. We stayed up until midnight, quite late for us, but others were out until the wee hours of the morning. Cannot do that anymore.
We tried out Komodo, an Asian restaurant very close by to our condo. Yet another "cool" Miami place. We've been meaning to try this as it gets great reviews, but sadly, we thought it was overhyped and over priced. Good but not great. Maybe drinks and appetizers only next time...
My walk in Miami was enhanced with a special sighting of dolphins right by the sea wall. Three of them, of course too fast to whip out my camera and catch them. Just imagine...
