MARCO ISLAND FUN

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!
How sweet is this?! A heart formed out of seashells on the beach.
~~~~~~
Our Friday:
Looking out our hotel lobby window toward the pool and beach
The beach here is so different from ours...very flat...lots of small shells. The water is much calmer too...very few waves.
Jack & Linda and George before our walk on the beach. We took a nice long walk and collected quite a few seashells.
A guy was fishing off of some rocks and caught this hammerhead shark
We saw dolphins and can you believe it...I actually was able to catch one on film
I've always loved this statue
Here we are at lunch at The Tiki Bar waiting for our grouper sandwiches

~~~~~~
After we took our walk and had lunch, we all showered and dressed and then drove into Naples for some shopping and dinner.

We're having fun!

Kat,

From a new friend...I have left a few comments over the past year, but I have read your blog faithfully EVERYDAY. It is my all-time favorite blog. I have prayed for you when you had a scare, was thankful when you got good news, have loved learning about your family, your friends, your travels. You have inspired me to enter the blog world.

Today I made my first post. The friend that designed my blog has had it ready to go for a several days. Tonight I finally took the LEAP and posted. I look forward to making many new friends in the "world of bloggers"! I have a lot to learn.
One of my goals is to post pictures that are as good as yours. You are the best at pictures!
You have been an inspiration to me.

Hugs,
Teresa

Wow! I needed those warm pictures today. We had a few days with no snow and this morning we woke up to another blanket of it.
Keep soaking up that sun for me.

I love that seashell heart. Wish I could transplant it to my yard. Thanks again for sharing your life with all of us. I race to your site each day and hope that you have posted something new for us to enjoy.
