(Mountain View is actually the name of the street one street over from the street that I live on!….Did that make any sense?) Anyway, I snapped this shot of the mountain last night: So pretty!

I’m back from Disney World! It was a blast: exhausting and exhilarating and I would ride Splash Mountain over and over again if I could! I will try to put up some of my favorite pictures later in the week – I’m still sorting through them all. _________________________ A few weeks ago, two of my [...]

I have always been a big fan of sunsets. You have probably noticed that my blog is full of photographs of sunsets. I usually take sunset photographs off my balcony, which has a great view of downtown Miami and west towards the airport. I honestly think that no two Miami sunsets are alike (even though [...]

This is the beach at Cape Sable. Cape Sable is the southernmost point of both Florida and the United States mainland! Nearly the entire Cape is a natural sandy beach, no more than about 100 feet deep, but it is a real beach, unlike the rest of Florida’s man-made beaches. There were even shells on [...]

A few weeks ago, I went to a fundraiser-cocktail hour for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. The event was held at the Grove Isle Hotel and Spa, and was the kick-off party for St. Jude’s 2010 Angels and Stars Gala. The St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is a non-profit research institution for children’s catastrophic diseases, [...]

Several weeks ago, I attended a party at a gorgeous mansion on Key Biscayne. Held during the weekend of the Sony Ericsson Open (that’s tennis, by the way, not golf…it’s like they give sporting events purposely ambiguous names to confuse people – like, for example, the John Deere Classic, which is golf – and don’t [...]

This past weekend I attended the after-party for the Miami screening of Andy Garcia’s new movie, “City Island.” Andy is an old friend of Wendy’s. I must confess, the only movies of his I have seen are When A Man Loves A Woman, and the Ocean’s 11 movies. I do not think that I am [...]

The birthday party I attended this past weekend was held at The Ivy, in Coconut Grove, in Miami. And, wow, it was one of the most beautiful buildings I have ever seen! I first saw the building during my exploration of Coconut Grove a couple of weeks ago – or may it really was just [...]

The other night, Wendy, Tania and I attended a birthday party cum March of Dimes fundraiser! You know how much I love babies…it was perfect! The event was held at The Ivy, in Coconut Grove, which is the most breathtaking building I have been in since I have gotten to Miami. The building was so [...]
