Florida January Visitors

 My sister-in-law visited here for about 10 days, an annual event for the last several years.  We were four, now we’re two.  New traditions have been formed and we carry on some of the old ones.  Life.  A few photos from this last trip.

And a New Year

 A visit from the fam, an adventure to the new Mote Aquarium in Sarasota, new landscaping and a Florida sunset .  In no particular order.
