The View Above. Lunch at Turtles on Little Sarasota Bay.
Siesta Key, Florida
I think that blue and white boat looks as though it is skeered of heights!
Sharing with Nancy’s Your Sunday Best and Murietta 365′s SOOC.
I am a small town girl turned city gal turned country gal that wanted to indulge myself with a blog where I could place my pictures of subjects that are special to me. Pictures of people, places, things, kitties, horses and wild things on legs and feathered that make my heart happy. I also wanted to print a few words. I am a born in MissouREE retired in MissouREE happy picture taker living rural with a Nikon D5100 and D60 that are both smarter than I am. They are trying to boss me around and I am loving it. Both picture taking Nikons have recruited a few lenses to make me feel even more bossed around and clueless. I am learning each day and that is a good and fun thing.

You are so right about that Florida sky. Florida is an amazing state as you know. Now if we could just get our Florida loving selves down there permanently 
May 6, 2012 at 1:14 pm
What a nice capture of perspective and color.
May 6, 2012 at 11:26 am
Thank you so much! It was odd to look up from our lunch and see the boats up there so close.
May 7, 2012 at 6:38 am
Wow – what a great shot!
May 6, 2012 at 11:26 am
Thank you Dianna! And I used your tip on sizing right on good old WordPress. Thank you
May 6, 2012 at 1:18 pm
Nice one. Wish I had that view right now.
May 6, 2012 at 12:02 pm
Me TOO Deb!!!!
May 6, 2012 at 1:32 pm
Gorgeous blue . . . Pretty fine if there is NO humidity . . .
May 6, 2012 at 12:03 pm
I am so with you on the humidity! It is so hot and humid here in MissouREE that it feels like mid-July~ugh. Been like this for days. Waiting for a coldfront to come thru and blow this stale old air mass outa here! It is less humid and cooler in our favorite place in Florida than it is here.
Go Emily! You must be so proud
May 6, 2012 at 1:35 pm
Nice shot – the boats almost look like they’re stuck up in the trees! Pretty colors – very “Florida-ish” !!
Pam and Sam
May 6, 2012 at 12:40 pm
I love me some Florida-ish
May 6, 2012 at 1:19 pm
I lived in Clearwater for several years in late 60s/early 70s…..missed Virginia so much I came back! LOL

May 6, 2012 at 12:59 pm
Thank you Cheryl! I just pointed and clicked
I love that Florida sky. Wish I was sitting there right now 
It would be less hot and humid!
May 6, 2012 at 1:40 pm

Thank you Kate! I wouldn’t mind a little boating today either
May 7, 2012 at 7:19 am
What a wonderful perspective on that poor boat! Made me smile too!

Good Morning Linda! Yep, poor thing. Needs to be in the water!
May 7, 2012 at 7:03 am

Thank you so much Kim!
May 7, 2012 at 7:20 am
Yes, I can see those wide eyes! Great shot, unusual angle on this subject.
May 6, 2012 at 8:02 pm
I just looked up and there they were
May 7, 2012 at 7:04 am
that poor boat. but it sure provided a great splash of blue in your click!
May 6, 2012 at 10:00 pm
Hi Kris! I hope this isn’t another comment in email for you! What is up with all the comments with WP? Have you been getting follow up comments on all the posts you comment on? I am going to have to remember to uncheck when I hit comment. I usually go back and look because the comments are fun. That poor boat needs some water!
May 7, 2012 at 7:24 am
yes, water for the boat please.
and yes, what is up with all those comments? it seems that you have to manually ‘unclick’ when leaving a comment. Some bloggers are simply removing the option of ‘notify of me follow-up comments’ – and i see that you have done that, too. i have not yet gone that route, because some bloggers like the option of being notified. but it certainly fills up email boxes very quickly.
i actually like that you copy me back by email if you respond to a comment. that works well! anyhow, trust you are keeping well
May 10, 2012 at 2:28 pm
Wonderful perspective on this photo!
May 7, 2012 at 12:01 am

I believe it might be!
May 7, 2012 at 7:02 am
Gosh that’s gorgeous. The colors are so vivid and bright. A glimpse of paradise.
May 7, 2012 at 7:59 am
Hi E.C.! It is paradise, at least we think so
May 7, 2012 at 8:39 am
Gorgeous, Pix! We’ve eaten at Turtles on the Bay . . . enjoyed the view!
May 7, 2012 at 8:34 am
I am so ready to go back! Heading to Ocala this month to visit friends that moved from Englewood, FL. CH wants to check out their 55+ community. It IS horse country
May 7, 2012 at 8:38 am
Ooh . . . have a nice visit. We enjoyed our drive through the Gainesville area . . . very different from the beaches.
May 7, 2012 at 8:46 am
Great photo Pix. I love the colors and I agree, the boat needs some water.
May 7, 2012 at 1:18 pm
Thanks Christina on the photo part
Yeah it is just so not right up there hanging in the air!
May 7, 2012 at 6:51 pm
It looks like a scared shark. With a tiara. Hehe.
Love the colors! May I call you ‘Pix’?
May 7, 2012 at 1:30 pm
A tiara! Well I see it! And absolutely you may call me ‘Pix’.
May 7, 2012 at 6:46 pm
I wasn’t expecting that at all. At first I thought I was on the wrong page!
May 7, 2012 at 3:16 pm
May 7, 2012 at 6:46 pm
…and don’t worry too much about the photos you post to YSB — I’m just glad you are there! xoxo

The best sand in the world right there!
May 8, 2012 at 3:44 pm
Very true!
May 9, 2012 at 9:49 am
Looks familiar! I spend time in Venice Florida,,just south..haven’t been down to the “village” in Siesta
for awhile…it might be time to go!
May 9, 2012 at 9:19 am
Always fun to visit Siesta Key Village! Heavenly Cupcakes~pure bliss, especially after a grouper sandwich at Turtles
Thank you for your visit to Under the Oaks! I will be back to visit you, took a brief look. I’d like to come back and visit when I can kick back and browse. Your a horse lover and squirrels too 
We will be visiting our little Squee this month before the rehab sets him free.
May 9, 2012 at 9:58 am
Awwwwwwwwwwww…Yes I’m definitely a horse lover and squirrel lover…I have a children’s book about a horse named “Bob”, coming out soon….Bob’s a real horse that I walked with for two years on and off. So I took lots of photos of both he and his herd…You’ll find some pictures of Bob throughout the blog. I LOVE him!
May 9, 2012 at 10:52 am
I can see me standing at the top there, full steam ahead, w/ arms stretched out shouting, “I’m King (Queen) of the World!” heheheee =)
Love that awesome blue sky! =)
May 10, 2012 at 9:51 am
Oh yes, my mom rides every chance she gets, which isn’t as often as she’d like… her & a bunch of riders got together a few years ago to ride in The Irish Wilderness just west of here in Oregon county Missouri & they got lost & had to spend the night in the woods, then her horse got loose in the middle of the night & ran away & took 11 days to find her, but she did find her, thank GOD! She was worried sick & just hated to leave knowing her horse was lost in those woods over there for sooo many days! That was a nightmare for her!
I wish I could ride w/ her, but I’m not as brave as she is… I got bucked off a horse when I was little & even tho I’ve ridden since, I’m just too scared to go out on trail rides like she does…
I sure love photographing horses, tho, they’re incredibly beautiful!!! =) I love em, but I’m scared of em, too… go figure! heheheee =)
May 10, 2012 at 11:48 am
Goodness Tricia! What a scary story! I am glad everything worked out well. I would have been a wreck too. Good for her getting to ride!
May 11, 2012 at 6:57 am
Wow, so up up above/ Hehehe. Loved the blue.
May 11, 2012 at 4:40 am
Waaaaaaaaaaaaay up above!
May 11, 2012 at 6:59 am

May 16, 2012 at 6:45 am
Have to tell you I saw your profile photo on another blog and was immediately drawn to look. Once you see my own profile photo you’ll see why. I think its really funny!
I also have to ask are you from the Sarasota area?
May 16, 2012 at 8:04 am
Yep! It is funny! No not from Sarasota. Born in Missouri. In Missouri now and contemplating moving to Venice, Florida after years of spending a few weeks of winter there. I just don’t know if I can leave my Tiny Ten acres of heaven here. Love Sarasota and Turtles on the Bay, for a grouper sandwich…
Thank you for your visit here!
