My Daily Walk

I've been pretty good at walking a couple miles every day for the past month or so. I finally decided the only way I would keep to a schedule was to make myself walk every day - instead of picking 4-5 days a week to walk - this way there's no excuse whatsoever for me to not get 2 miles in per day...at least!

Normally I go to the gym at the hotel, but this evening I thought I'd break up the routine a little and walk around "the neighborhood". I love our neighborhood here at the beach. It's pretty fab, especially at sunset.

This is the bridge that connects the hotel & marina complex to the golf course and neighborhood of the same name. I've never crossed this bridge before! I decided tonight was the night!

This is the vantage point from the sidewalk, about 3/4 the way to the highest point on the bridge.

Here's the lookout tower, looking south over the Intracoastal Waterway.

Not one to get absorbed in the details (wink wink) here's what the inside of the tower looks like. I just love the attention to detail. The iron chandelier and wooden beams were a pleasant surprise.

And here is the lovely view of the hotel and marina from the top of the bridge. This is facing south on the ICW. The golf course is on the right.

I walked to the bottom of the bridge then crossed to the other side so I could see the view from that vantage point.
These are the homes of our GAZILLIONAIRE neighbors, looking north on the ICW.

I felt like the paparazzi taking these pix, sort of invading their privacy, but like all Hollywood celebrities do, they call attention to themselves with their grotesque displays of wealth. Bastards!!! So I extended my lens as far as it would go!

All's quiet as the sun sets over the Anchor Cafe - the marina bar - where this time of night is their busiest.
