Yesterday, my daughters and I headed out to Lake Washington here in Melbourne Florida. We try and catch the sunset every chance we can, because no two sunsets are ever the same.
We watched as the airboats came screeching in - you can hear them for miles around.
And we watched the crowds gather to catch a glimpse of the miracle of the sun fading into the horizon.
We live only 5 minutes from Lake Washington, so often we get on our bicycles and ride there.
We felt blessed to have been fortunate enough to have caught such an incredible sunset this particular evening.

that for you
Just gorgeous. Love that you took a series of photos.
Very beautiful and peaceful scenes...nice way to start a Monday morning. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Audrey, I probably took about 50 pictures and kept about 10 of them. I would have loved to post all of them - but thought that would be too much. Glad you enjoyed them!
Hi Li, How have you been? Hope you had a wonderful holiday! We have so far. It was beautiful and peaceful too. Love going out there to visit. Thanks for stopping by!
Good Morning Sandy-Love those pics. They are very calming. Also love your background pic. I hope you have a great day and a wonderful New Year. It is fast approaching. Talk to you soon. :-)
Hey Pat, How are you? I'm doing well. Thanks for stopping by. I could take sunset pictures everyday. My background picture is the Indian River Lagoon here in Melbourne. Thanks for the compliment and take care.
Awsome photos, gorgeous. It is true no two sunsets are alike. Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures with us!
Sandy - those are absolutely breath taking photographs, and thanks for sharing them. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy and prosperous 2009!
These are really great photos! Can you help me in gaining knowledge of how to upload. I have click on the tree icon, but only get a click, when I try to browse for a file?
Is there a trick to this?
Thanks for sharing these beautiful pictures with us. Happy New Year!
Hi Tony and Darcy, You're welcome. I have seen sooooo many sunsets and they are all incredible. Like watching a different movie everyday. Have a wonderful New Year!
Sandy I like the looks of your Lake Washington better than mine today:)
Hi Sharon, How are you today? We loved watching this sunset. So many people shared it with us. And all the boats were coming in at the same time. It was a real treat. So gorgeous. I hope that you and your family also have a wonderful New Year. Thanks.
Hi Edward and Celia, Glad you enjoy the photos. In uploading photos to a new blog, within the new blog, click on the tree, like you indicated and a pop up box will turn up, then in the general section, click on the little table at the end of the image url box (browse), it will take you to your computer's directory...then you must go to where you keep your pictures in your computer (if it's under pictures, then choose that) and browse your pictures till you find the one you want to use, click on it, and then under appearances you can size your pictures, choose the proper placement of them within your article and tag them. Then hit upload. Let me know if this makes sense and works for you.
Fantastic photos. Thanks for sharing them!
Sandy: What an incredible series of pictures. Who needs art galleries when you have this to look at every night ? Thanks so much for sharing them with us. Take care...
Hi Diane, It's a pleasure to share such gorgeous pictures with others. Hope you are well!
Hi Charles, I am certain that it is very cold and icy there. We were in shorts and t shirts when we took these pictures. Beautiful weather.
Good Morning Sandy!! Those pictures are truly gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing them! Sounds like you are having a good Holiday with your girls!! :-)
Sandy, I was in Lake Okeechobee a week ago----it was pretty dang nice:)
Hey Betina, It is absolutely beautiful catching the sunsets. Hope you are well and take care.
Hi Karen, We try to get down to the lake as often as possible, so we can watch the sunset. They are all so different. This one was a particularly beautiful evening.
Hey Miss Mary, My girls and I are stopping to smell the roses this holiday season, like we said we would. We have so many beautiful sights around us. We are trying to catch them all. I hope that you are also enjoying yours.
Hey Charles, I have been to Lake Okeechobee - it is really a beautiful area. Did you get out on an airboat and see any Florida alligators?
Sandy,
Those are some gorgeous photos! Thank you for sharing.

Sandy, these are beautiful photos! Happy New Year!
Hey Ann, Thanks for the compliment...it was an absolutely spectacular sunset this particular evening. We really felt blessed to catch a glimpse of it. Thanks for stopping by, as you always do...you're great!
Hi Darrell, Glad the pictures relaxed you...it was an absolutely beautiful setting! Happy New Year to you too!
Hey Kelly, I take my camera with me everywhere I go now. I catch some beautiful shots. I just wonder what kind of pictures I could get if I spent a bit more on a camera a bit better than the one I have. The one I'm using is truly a bottom of the line, automatic...it works great!
Hi Patricia, Thanks! It was a really beautiful sunset. We are blessed with so many gorgeous sights here in Melbourne Florida.
Hi Sandy,
Aww... you post good things and I like to comment. Keeps me feeling connected to the world..
at least to Florida.;-)
