Here in Mid-East Florida, it's a lovely weekend this easter. A nice 82F (27C) early summer day. The water here still a bit chilly, but folks venturing in without wetsuits now, although the serious folks still wearing them.
This is a great change as we were used to snow on the ground this time of year last year (not in Florida, we were in Vermont last year). I'm definitely enjoying the sand more than snow in many ways.
Here we are in Ormond Beach, just south of the Gamble Rogers state park. Not much on the waves today, so not many surfers or belly boards, but that will change with the upcoming warmer weather rolling in.
I had a great walk yesterday up the beach for a mile or so and back. I found that while they don't like dogs in the State Park section of the beach, this little walkway is just south of the no dogs allowed line.
We didn't get Betty to the beach today, but she enjoyed hanging out in the shade of the trees in her little grassy spot. It's already getting too warm outside for her taste. She definitely preferred the snow over sand.
