Three days up on Lake Norman was busy with work and visiting friends that I have not seen in quite some time. The business side of the visit was way to busy, and the fun side was way to short. It was the "so little to do and so much time" routine.
Got back to Key West around 5pm yesterday escaping all of the bleakness of winter in the north just brought a smile to my face and some warmth all over. Everything is grey or brown this time of year, no leaves on the trees, no flowers just drab. Getting off of the plane so see green and colorful flowers in the middle of February is a really wonderful thing. The best part was the 70 plus degrees last night and being back in shorts and t shirts again.
I just really love it here and the atmosphere that all of the people bring to it as well as the year round living colors of the plants and the water to keep a smile on my face. I just wish all of my friends up north could enjoy the year round warmth of the keys. ;o)
