Unexpected day off






After a grueling 14 hour day yesterday, with a schedule meant for 3 people with only the 2 of us to shoot it, we were happy to learn we had today off. We thought about going to the Strawberry Festival but decided we needed to rest. We've spent nearly every day off so far driving, sightseeing, shooting pictures, etc. So today we only went about 10 miles south, though we took the long way around and drove closer to 40 miles. We stopped at an Amish-style restaurant for lunch and a huge strawberry shortcake (we shared the dessert), checked out the camera stores (nothing but small chain stores that don't carry much in this area), and drove out to Siesta Key to check out the beach. It's beautiful. Miles and miles of pristine white sand. Because it was a cool and windy day, we didn't stay long. Mostly just took some pictures to see if we'd gotten the sensor cleaned off with our makeshift blower. (Yes!)
