Winter Break Retreat

Getting away to review our goals and reflect on the past year is always a good thing to do.  This year we traveled to the Ritz Carlton on Amelia Island.  Florida is always nice this time of year although a bit cold.  I know I don't get much sympathy from our northern friends, but after a few years of the blood thinning out, it sure can feel cold at times.

 

 

Here is a beautiful sunset.  Considering we are on the east coast, it is not over the water like the west coast, but I thought the grass from the dunes and the palm trees made a nice touch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We were able to spend some time walking the beach and just long talks.  In this picture you can see the resort in the background.  It's a nice place to stay and the family discount sure doesn't hurt.

 

 

 

The beach is certainly the place to be.  The sound of the ocean is very relaxing and give a person the opportunity to clear your mind.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We did enjoy going out a few times.  Nothing like a nice dinner with your wife. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spending time in Fernandina Beach was also fun.  We got to wander through the shops and enjoy a good cup of coffee.  The dock is also a place with usually something going on.  Here are a couple of pictures we took.
