Sanibel Sunrise...

We've been enjoying a little R&R down in Florida.  On our last day, we decided to wake up extra early to catch the sunrise.  I'm glad we did.... it was a majestic morning with dolphins jumping and shore birds scurrying about.  Sanibel will always have a special place in my heart.  My grandparents lived on the island, so my family spent many spring breaks down here.  If you get the chance to visit, be sure to check out the Sanibel Historical Museum & Village to learn a little bit of the history of the island.  You can find my late grandfather's Sears Roebuck & Co tin collection on display in the 1927 Old Bailey General Store.  It was the first time I'd seen them up close... pretty neat.  My "gramp" spent many years serving as a docent at the museum (in the General Store), so it is a fitting tribute for someone who so relished the role and concept of volunteering.  He never met a stranger.  Until next time, Sanibel.
