Beach Entry #30
I took this outside our condo during a spectacular sunset on Oct. 19, 2007. The Destin sunsets never cease to amaze me. Such a peaceful feeling. Our family always stands outside whenever there's a sunset and toasts our good fortune to be lucky enough to experience a little slice of heaven!

This was before I decided to be bold and take a picture with a big wave in the background (which soaked my camera).

Doesn't everyone come to the ocean to find shells? My son found this one in Destin around the end of June of 2008, but it was occupied by a crab. Check out the vibrant pink on the shell. Really beautiful.

There were so many birds on the beach near the jetties. They made quite a sight when they all flew up at once.

Picture of someone that was surfing out near Pompano Joes. There is a cable there that several people were using to pull them up into the waves.

Beach Entry #6
This photo was taken Saturday, Aug. 9, 2008, from the balcony of Destin Beach Club. It is special to me because it is a photo you can look at on a bad day and say I wish I was there and know you will be next summer.

Looking east of Destin, out in the Gulf. Easy to see why it's called the Emerald Coast. The water is absolutely beautiful and refreshing.

Beach Entry #1
Taken on July 22, 2008, on Okaloosa Island, close to the East Pass Bridge. I feel this photo captures the many faces of the Gulf of Mexico and the power of the water.
