Welcome to Clearwater, Florida!
We survived the long journey from Kodiak Island, Alaska!
At last we find ourselves in a warm, sunny climate...the home of David's childhood and only a 5 hour drive away from mine. His parents have graciously welcomed us into their home, where we will be staying until our own real estate purchase is finalized. What a great neighborhood! Quiet streets next to an Elementary school, great for bike riding. Yet only 5 minute drive to Publix or any other amenity. 15 minutes to beautiful Clearwater Beach or the large mall in Tampa. There is an endless amount of civilization, and entertainment is at our fingertips.
We've been to see the Clearwater Threshers minor league baseball team (the farm team for the Phillys). What a great American pasttime. I don't remember if they won or lost that night, but it doesn't really matter! Cheap beer, nice weather, and you can actually see palm trees beyond the outfield. And a good opportunity to practice action photography.
