VISIT NAPLES...
I spent the day by the shoreline with my Mom again today. Living this close to the beach is really putting a damper on my to do list - especially my Christmas shopping. The term "beach bum" is sounding like a pretty good description of my lazy self right about now. I'm totally owning it - proudly.

Hi,
I don't have a blog, but I was wondering if you could suggest a really great restaurant in the Naples/Marco Island area. We will be there in March and have 2 family birthdays during the week. I want something special....from a local perspective =)).
Thank you!!

Girl, I am so happy for you. . . I can feel the freedom in your post since you have been there.
Enjoy the weather for me . . . Frozen here.
Hi Angie:
I have been reading your blog for a while..found you from Kelly's Korner. I am a Miami native and Naples is about 90 minutes from our home. We love it..the West Coast beaches rock! Sarasota beaches are beautiful, too! To answer your question about the tree with the fruit, that is a banana tree. We have them in our backyard. The bananas are a smaller version of what you would buy in the grocery store. They are pretty good, kinda sweet. With regards to the things from the palm trees, I call them "beads". The birds like to eat them. Kinda messy and they scatter everywhere!
Glad to know that you and your family are doing well. I have a son who is also the same age as your son. Your photography is beautiful! There is nothing like the Naples beaches to relax the soul. The sunsets are amazing as well! God has truly blessed us Floridians, hasn't He?
May the wonder of our Savior's love fill your hearts with joy this Christmas and in the New Year!
Enjoy your first Christmas as a Floridian!! Blessings to you and your family, Cheryl from Miami
I love the purple flower and the tree with the yellow berry looking things, although I think Cheryl said that was a bannana tree, too cool. You better get Christmas shopping girl, you only have 9 days left until Christmas :) Hope you have a fabulous Wednesday, I'm off to feed my chickens and collect some eggs, would love to give you guys some fresh eggs if ya lived closer;)

Cheryl,
Well thank you so very much girl. I had no idea that those were banana trees. Amazing! I have tons to get educated on now that we are full time Floridians. LOL! I'm thankful for people like you who can teach me what in the world I'm looking at and photographing. HA HA! And how awesome that you are a Miami girl. Yes, only about an hour to an hour and a half from us here in Naples. Should you guys ever get down this way, let me know. It's always great fun to meet blog readers in person. Thank you for being a frequent visitor. :)
Have a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year too.
Blessings, Angie
Hey, Angie~~~~
OMG! Amazing, just a million times amazing is all I gotta say about your pics. Glorious pics! I haven't "talked" to you in a long time. I did want you to know that I read your posts every day and so enjoy your photos. It sounds like you all are adjusting well. You are in my thoughts
and prayers as always!
And oh yeah~~~~ how cool to have your Mom with you! I lost my Mom to lung cancer back in 1993. She grew up in Florida. Her brother still lives in Panama City (rather, Lynn Haven, which is a little suburb). I have wonderful memories of travels to the beach there. I probably will have me some skin cancer someday due to the horrendous sunburns we got there as
kids.
Blessings,
Helen
Hey, Angie! THese are some BEEE-utiful pics. You do such a great job.
Liz,
I sent you information on Naples dining. Let me know if you didn't get it in your email inbox. Have a great trip here in March. It is a beautiful place! :)
Blessings, Angie
Angie, I love these scenes of the beach. Especially, the one of the Barnabes. That photo looks as the the bird in the front with the wings spread is saying to the other birds, " O.K., everyone paying attention ? this is how it's done ". A great Florida Chamber of Commerce photo. However, I think that one of the water "flying" up was an AWESOME shot, the ability to get that shot shows how TALENTED you've become in your photography skills. You should look into a job with the Florida Chamber of Commerce. Merry Christmas, give Brennen and Kenidi hugs and kisses from Aunt Sharla
