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.

Back at the beach

After a long cool spell (I won't say cold in respect to those up north!) I got back to the beach Sunday.  I was far from the only one, this beach is never as crowded as big city or resort beach's, but the parking lots where jammed and people where parking anyplace they could find to get to the beach.

It was still a bit cool but obviously people had been hold up inside long enough and had to get out and enjoy the sun.

Crop Walk

Crop Walk took place this last Sunday afternoon here in Venice.  It is neighbors walking together to take a stand against hunger in our world. Walking for those who have to walk to get water and food.  Crop Walk raises awareness and funds for international relief and development, as well as fighting hunger locally.
