A Few Clearwater Notes
My wife and I are back home after a nice trip to Clearwater Beach, FL. And yes – as we were leaving the temperature in Clearwater got back to being up to almost 80 degrees. Ah well …
We had a great meal at a place called Crabby Bill’s. In fact, as we were seated, Crabby Bill’s was being featured in a program on the Food Network. After some broiled seafood and crab cakes, we left happy and satisfied customers.
I learned first-hand that you do not screw with pelicans. This guy was not nearly as friendly to me as I was to him.
Unfortunately, the one thing sub-par thing about the trip was the educational conference I attended. Outside of some interesting workshops on video gaming addiction and social networking , the rest were rather boring . But at least the trip was a killer!
We watched the sunset on the gulf from a pier, which was very nice despite the wind. Traditional sunset pictures omitted here.
It is back to work tomorrow. I think that I could get used to these two-day work weeks rather easily.
With my wife and son leaving on a snow skiing trip for the weekend, I should have some free time on my hands. The poker gods may be calling …

Awww nice pics. Mrs. Lightning is lovely...too bad about her taste in men. :P
Everyone knows you would give ANYTHING to be in her place, my dear ... : o P
True, I would like to go on a snow skiing trip wth your son.
Going after the young guys again, huh?? Tell Waffles to hide his son!
video game addiction.
Been there done that!
Glad you had a great trip
I might be colder in Illinois, but it's always nice to be home. Thx for the photos.
Sounds like a conference set up just to attract those from colder climes. Interesting subjects covered. It made me quite curious about your job; what do you do for a living?
I could really use some warm weather myself. Granted, we've had a mild winter with virtually no snow, but some warmth would be most welcome.
Thanks for the pics!
@Cranky I am a professional counselor. I work at a community college.
lightning - more power to you! That sounds like a job that can really suck the life out of you.
@Cranky -- I celebrate 30 years in higher education on July 1. Still love it!
