Green Living Expo

There was actually a lot happening in Venice FL this last weekend, but the big thing for me was the first annual Green Living Expo put on by the Venice Board of Realtors to support Habitat For Humanity and promote greener living.  It was a great first event, with about 30 vendors, speakers, good food, and music from the Venice High School Orchestra.

Watery Reflections

What a beautiful day of Florida sunshine.  I love the reflections of the water on the boats.

Easter Fun

Families had a fun day in the park for Easter, face painting, egg hunt, music, and more.  Happy Easter Everyone!

Origami Swans

With the untypical cool weather it had actually been some months since I've been to the Saturday Farmers Market.  As I was visiting with a friend in one booth I was commenting on the wonderful Origami Swans in the next booth.  Just as I was taking a photo the lady in the booth poked her head around the corner with a big smile.  Great candid shot!

Freinds at Business After Five

Every month the Venice Chamber Of Commerce has several events, last night was the Business After Five.  It was a great time outdoors in wonderful Florida spring weather.  Here are a couple of my local business friends clearly enjoying the evening Debbi Walters with Calypso Graphics and Paul W. DeClark with Health Products Powerhouse, Inc.

Orange Blossom Special

At last the weather has started to warm up and plants hit hard by the cold are springing back.  I really enjoy these Orange Blossoms and clearly the Bees do to.

On the Corner

I've been by and in this old building in downtown Venice many times but sometimes it pays to look up.  I got an angle on it with the palm tree that I really like.
