The Tropics

Pictures from a recent vacation to South Florida:

I loved the variation in the hibiscus plants.

A fallen soldier..

PS I hate that kind of grass (don't know the name). It just looks itchy.

                      

There was also a variety of Palm trees. 

This was my favorite. 

It's hard to tell from the picture, but it had frons fanning all the way around the stem instead of just on either side like most Palms. 

Anyone know what it's called??

If I ever live in South Florida (which chances are I never will), I think my favorite part would be the tropical plants. There would probably be a big bouquet of hibiscus blooms on my kitchen table every morning. They really are beautiful.

How To Make (and enjoy) Pimento Cheese Sandwiches.

Spread on 2 slices of your favorite bakery's bread (toasted of course).

Oh, and don't forget some chips on the side- to scoop up what falls out of the sandwich.

Enjoy with a friend!

Tournament Play.

I'm taking a risk here folks. 

Well, really two risks.

First: I'm taking a risk by posting pictures of sports instead of flowers and/or pretty girls (It's a risk given my largely female demographic. Try to keep up).

Second: These pictures aren't that great. I don't think I have the best lens for taking athletic shots. Plus, golf is the kind of sport that you have to be quiet and stop moving when someone is about to hit, so I couldn't exactly get in the golfers' faces..

So here's the deal. 

I'm learning. 

And instead of just not posting my "not so great" photos, I'm going to post them anyways. And we can improve together.

Sound good?

Okay, great.

That's my Dad. He's pretty awesome. He's also pretty awesome at golf (hence the 3 championships).

Thoughts, Thoughts, Anyone??

I really would love to hear your thoughts!

Seriously, bring it on.

Spontaneity.

Just some fun pictures from this weekend:

It is officially summertime my friends!

Which means my camera and I will spending plenty of quality time together.

Get excited folks. =)
