December 10, 2005




Christmas must be drawing nearer as more and more lights and decorations go up around this park. It begins to look more like the Richmond tacky light tour all the time. A friend and I went down into Naples proper Thursday evening and as we walked and/0r danced along 3rd avenue amongst the people, the snow began to spurt out from the street lights. The fun was in watching the little children standing under the falling snow. Some of the parked cars actually had an accumulation on them. Of course there are also many lights there as well. It was all quite magical. We had gone over to the Naples Pier earlier in the evening to watch the sunset which is a nightly ritual in that area. People just seem to appear from everywhere just before the sunset, striding along with the purpose of seeing the sun set in a spectacular blaze. Today it is a bit cloudy and threatening but then the sun comes out brightly for a hour or so. A trip to the beach was planned but has been postponed. I have been biking quite a lot but want to mount a rack on the back for carrying things so went to two bike stores to compare prices. Hope you enjoy these photos of the area.
