The Sunset, Shrimp and Flowers

Our sunsets this winter have been spectacular.
Most nights the sky puts on quite a show of colors, pinks, blue and fiery orange.
The colors are radiant and warm.
I text my fellow sunset lovers to be sure they look outside...
and send them a picture just in case they missed it!

Here are 4 different sunsets, all of the pictures were taken from the same spot.
Soon I will venture out to the marina and photograph the sunsets there like I used to.





- every sunset is an opportunity to reset -

We ventured out for dinner last night, Shore Fresh, it was the first time in a while.
We ordered fried shrimp so any germs it "may" have would die off in the cooking process.
We used plasticware instead of silverware.


The Paperwhites are showing off their clusters of small white flowers,
with their dotted yellow centers.
These easy to grow, fragrant blooms symbolize renewal, hope, light and new beginnings.


They are about 18" tall,
filling the house with their beautiful scent.
Is there anything better than flowers, good food,
and the sunset!

Those sunset pictures are stunning! How lucky you are to live in an area with such beauty. That shrimp dinner looks delish. Makes me yearn for shrimp.

Great sunsets! The silhouettes are just as good as the sunsets.

Beautiful sunsets, we sit down between the mountains so no sunsets for us maybe a peak now and then.
I love shrimp but husband is allergic so I never get them unless we are out.

I love sunsets too. And sunrise. And also taking pictures with the sun coming up around the trees. Just so pretty.

Wow the sunsets were just amazing, nice you have felt well enough to go out to eat :). The flowers are just gorgeous, you wouldn't know it was winter at your place, we have snow outside our widows, but not for long we are going to get up into the 50's starting this weekend. Much better than the 17 we had today.
