| It was too windy to sit out on the gulf side for sunset tonight. This is on the bay side of Anna Maria Island looking north.....amazing color! |
Due to a slightly rearranged schedule, our time out on the island has been a little shorter than normal. Tomorrow morning it's back to the airport for a short flight to somewhere neither Beth or I have been before, Pittsburgh. I've heard a lot of really good things about the city and we're looking forward to exploring it a bit. We didn't just randomly select Pittsburgh. There's a reason we're heading that direction. Especially since winter is having a difficult time surrendering to spring up in that part of the country.
Ben has recently accepted a position as the Business Development & Recreation Director at Jellystone Park Camp-Resort at Kozy Rest. The park, is located in Harrisville, PA, which is about an hour north of Pittsburgh. It was a tough decision because he was enjoying his position as Stephen F. Austin, but he's following his passion which is what life is all about. Additionally, he'll be working closely with some friends he has made over the years. He'll have an opportunity to learn and grow while sharing his knowledge and experience with them.
We'll be spending three days in Pittsburgh before heading over closer to Harrisville for another three days. It'll be a fairly short trip, but fun to check out some new areas that I'm sure we'll get more familiar with in the future. We'll be back on the island for Easter. This means we'll have the opportunity to wave goodbye to the last of the snowbirds and spring breakers. It'll be nice to have a few less people and cars to deal with out here. The saying goes, "you can't live with them and you can't live without them" certainly applies to the island during "high season".
I look forward to sharing a bit of information on this new destination in the next few blogs.
