Crow's Nest ~ Wednesday Dinner

Tomorrow will be busy for me, so have the last several days, since I am getting ready to go see family for a few days. We will celebrate Christmas a little early, in order for all of us to be together at one time. I am excited about it, but a little apprehensive, due to the cold weather they are having in Indiana with talk of snow. Brrrrr! I have a hard time dealing with that. :-) But, it will be worth it.

It was 68 degrees here last night and 83 today, which suits me just fine. It was still warm tonight when we drove to Captiva to have dinner with friends at the Tween Waters Crow's Nest. We had a very nice meal and then enjoyed walking around looking at the beautiful Christmas lighting. I only had my cell phone, which doesn't take great pictures in low light, but I'm sharing them with you anyway. If I don't get another post done tomorrow night, have a great weekend and I will try to get back to the beach for some pictures on Tuesday.

Pointe Santo Saturday

Sorry I've been very slow in getting a post ready; haven't been feeling too good. These are photos that I took Saturday evening at Pointe Santo. There was a large assortment of shells on the beach, but nothing spectacular. I heard that the shelling was pretty good at Blind Pass lately. The weather has been super! We have low 80's in the daytime and nights are cool.

The first two photos are of the new tree plantings as you go onto the Causeway from Sanibel. Far on the right you can see rows of trees that were just planted along the parking area at the boat ramp. There are also a couple rows of trees on the left and you can see the large palms on each side of the street with the fuller tops.
Just a peek at a few palms on the left, just planted as you approach the first island. There are many more planted there and it's looking very nice!
