Wanna come see it in person?
We just don't get tired of watching (and photographing) the sun setting over the Sea. We posted a few other pics in the gallery.

The very dead, very decapitated, and very unidentifiable crustacean we found on the street outside our garage.
We have no idea what kind of crustacean this was, but what a surpise to find it outside our garage. From what we can tell, it was decapitated by 3rd Floor's garage door and somehow the rest of it ended up on the road in front of our garage. We both like seafood, but maybe not seafood roadkill. (Now those are two words I never thought I'd be typing..."seafood roadkill.") We're not in NW-PA anymore, Toto!

I might be prejudice, but they just don't seem very cute.
We're loving living on a sub-tropical island; however, with the beautiful weather comes big bugs! We didn't mind the snails in the courtyard, the gecko in the elevator, the hermit crab in the foyer, but the huge cicada on the screen - that's where I drew the line. When a bug is big enough to make me wonder if it flies at my head and I take a swing at it, is it going to take a swing back at me, I think the the bug is too big. :) I posted some more photos in the gallery. Enjoy!

This is the best photo I could snap of this little thing. It was really happy with these flowers.
Okay, we've posted about the very, very large bats on Base and the very large bugs on our screen. Are you starting to see a pattern? I thought I was too until our walk to see the sunset this evening. On our way, we found...well, we think it was a hummingbird. It was definitely the tiniest hummingbird I've ever seen, if it was indeed a hummingbird. I tried to snap a few photos, but once my flash turned on, the little guy got a bit possessive of his flowers (I think he thought I was going to post the directions to his private garden so all the other little flying creatures could find it) and took several diving runs at us. We quickly decided to finish our walk to the Sea Wall and got some photos of the sunset. So, big bats, big bugs, and small birds...who woulda thunk?

Kayakers chasing the sun.
Brandon and I went down to the Sea Wall to watch the sunset. What a gorgeous display of water, clouds, and color! Absolutely gorgeous! Though photos can't do justice, I wanted to share these with you. You're always welcome to come visit us and experience the real thing!
