Phil...my trip to Florida

[Adidas410s]

I'm in Florida (Clearwater Beach outside of Tampa) for the first time ever. I got here just before the sun went down...but it's cloudy so I didn't get to see a sunset. Here's the view off my balcony:

So instead of taking in the scenic views...I'm watching the A&M/Kansas game instead! :)

I had dinner at the hotel restaurant but for what I paid I was VERY disappointed. Cold, clumpy lobster bisque and when they brought my steak it was still sizzling...for like 5 minutes. I have never had a "sizzling" steak before! :(

But hopefully things will go much better tomorrow! :)

Tomorrow is golf and a super bowl party with JUMBO shrimp...I'm excited. I brought my digital SLR camera as well so I'll try to take some good pictures for you. Tampa/Clearwater is a really nice area from what I have seen so far.

I took this pic at about 745 this morning...about 30 minutes after the sun came up. (I left the pictures at a pretty large size...sorry dial up users! ;))

I took this one about an hour later once the sun had come up. I did remove the island that was showing in the first picture ;)
