These are happy umbrellas.
Designs and color give them life!
Not sure how good they are for shielding from the soaking rain.
But they do add some shade in the blazing hot sun.
Florida tends to be hot, hot, hot. 😉

Love this new deck chair, finally!
Life is good!
Keep it simple!
Have a pillow to match.
Last chair in stock.
Grabbed the floor model.
Reminds me of the Patagonia brand. 😉

So many months into Covid now, and probably so many more to go unfortunately.
Just missing getting out and down to Florida for a little vacation.
The palm trees. The sun. The beach. A little fun.
This isn’t forever, right?
Hopefully, let’s pray, Covid will be over and we can live again in freedom and without fear of contagion every moment of every day, day, day. 😉

First day in 15 weeks! that we went to a real store yesterday.
Dick’s Sporting Goods was open, but still not much else.
It was refreshing to look around again.
Nearly all the bicycles were cleaned out with people forced to do their own exercise routines these days.
People walking around mostly like they were on Mars.
Had some restaurants with just their patios open and people are sitting outside in the good weather.
Also, some eateries open for takeout.
Best part is still nature, and all the closures have brought us back to it.
This turtle was tanning in the warm sun on the rocks and swatting the snake away with its rear foot.
Sort of funny that even a turtle can never get any rest in life. 😉

Change the world…by changing your attitude.
Life is Beautiful!
It’s a gift.
Every day is renewal and opportunity.
Everything is for the best.
Believe it. Live it. And share it.
A smile and a positive attitude is contagious in a good way!

Did a nice beach walk from Tel Aviv to Jaffa.
It was sunny and warm out.
Lots of people exercising, running, and enjoying the outdoors.
The blue Mediterranean Sea, the white sand, and breeze in the air was lovely.
Even a funny statue of former Prime Minister Ben-Gurion doing a headstand as he used to do in his fitness routine.
Shabbat is a good time to stop and take that much needed walk on the beach. 😉

Thought this was a beautiful rendition of solar power.
You can have energy.
And you can have art.
Here you can have both.
It’s functional to harness the sun’s energy and it’s designed to look sleek and fit the landscape.
Nice job by Florida Power and Light (FPL)! 😉

After all the work is said and done…
And there is still so much more that I earnestly hope and pray to accomplish with my life.
Perhaps, then, when I am all grown up, I can have some time to be a sun bum too.
Everyone deserves a little fun. 😉

Even when you fall down, you should always rise up again!

Thought this was a cool, even if rudimentary, museum display.
Instead of postcards in the display holder, they put colored glass.
Then just let the sun shine in and look at the awesome wall display.
Might be fun to swap around to get different patterns and blends.
As a kid, I always used to turn the display to see what just around the bend, in this case you get the disco effect.
Color and light play nice together. 😉
