This is a photograph of a very old anchor.  So many stories in this piece just thinking of all of the exotic places it might have been.  Now it rests on dry land as a piece of “art”.  I found it in Sarasota, Florida on a morning walk along the bay.  It made me think of my childhood learning how to sail with my Uncle Tom.  I never fully got the hang of it, but it sure was fun to be out in the ocean with the wind pulling us along.  He did all of the work as us kids “helped”.  I can still feel that wind and smell that salty air today….

It’s that time a year again in Florida….hurricane season!  We start logging into NOAA daily to see what is forming off of the coast of Africa.  We listen to the news a little more closely and when the warning is issued we stock up on canned goods, water and batteries.  I’ve lived in this beautiful state my entire life and I have survived many nasty storms including major hurricanes. These things are quite humbling….you realize just how powerful Mother Nature really is.  But I would not live anywhere else…..I just keep an eye on the sky….
