10/31/2012 A Drive in the Other Direction

(Cocoa Beach, FL)

Today we had to find the local Home Depot.  Bob needed some things so off we went.  We traveled in the opposite direction of yesterday.

After making our purchases we decided to just go for a drive to see what was in the area.
We followed the Banana River and drove out on this peninsula with the river on one side and the ocean on the other and what we assume to be million dollar plus homes in the middle.  Very large, gorgeous homes painted in the palest yellows, pinks, creams, blues and greens and no two alike.  Perfectly manicured lawns and perfectly placed gardens and all the plantings complimented each other.  The kind of places that just screamed professional landscaper.  These homes and lawns were truly magazine cover worthy.  Bob and I just wondered what kind of job does one have to live like this.

On our way back I snapped this unusual looking tree.

Bob puttered the rest of the afternoon away and I was a slave to the laundry room.
