Welcome to Florida

While I’ve been posting snowy photos the last week, I’ve been traveling in Florida, and then on the Carnival Glory cruise ship to Belize, Mexico and the Bahamas. Fun, though sad to say (for me) the weather in the Caribbean was reminiscent of a November in Wisconsin.

So here is my first taste of Florida when the temperatures were still in the 80s and the sun was shining.

Blackpoint Wildlife Drive near Cape Canaveral. Palm trees are a big treat for me, but these will be old hat to anyone who sees these lovely trees year round.

Graceful architecture abounds in the interior of the Wisconsin State Capitol Building in Madison, WI.

As day welcomes the sun, we welcome a New Year.

Hope 2008 is happy, healthy and sunny for all of you. Happy New Years Day!

Plow once of the field
Contentedly sits in snow
Resting and rusting

The last day of 2007, a year of good but hard work, and today – a day to rest before the new year begins.
