February vacation!

Since we reside in Florida for six months, when we say we are going away for a vacation, some family in the North say, what are you vacationing from ? Aren't you already on vacation?

Well, each year we liked to get away for John's birthday, February 13th, and Valentine's Day, February 14th!  It seems like a good enough reason for a vacation !  And, getting away is always a change in routine.

This year we got a deal on a cottage, for three days,  in Conch Key, half way down the Florida Keys to Key West. Then, we drove on to Key West for three more days.

Winding up our eight week photography class, this trip gave us the opportunity to put to use what we had learned.  This blog posting will only show several of the over 2,000 photos we took.  Journey along with us and enjoy!

Our little oasis on the Gulf side !
Our private beach and Tiki hut.
                           


A perfect spot for kayaking.

Not much else here but us and a few Pelicans.
 Affluent Duck Key is a distance!

Rise early to capture sunrise!

Pistachio crusted grouper birthday dinner at The Fishery in Marathon!

Learning all about Henry Flagler, the FEC RR, and the Seven Mile Bridge on Pigeon Key.

Next stop, Key West  !!!!!
