Summer Time in the Tropics

Just an amazing change in the demographics of SWFL when "season" ends.  Traffic is so nice and sparse, people are not rushed and the stores are not filled.  I think the sound level even diminishes.  However, that being said, it is always a joy to see the tourists return - they bring an incredible energy to the area that I thrive on.  My studio and gallery are filled with special orders ready for me to emerge myself in.  So much fun and such a challenge. Every day is an affirmation of what I love to do.  I am very grateful.
