Longboat Key, Florida


My friend, Robyn and I took a short weekend trip to Madeira Beach, Florida and stayed with my friend, J. Daniel. We took a road trip down to Longboat Key, which is an island near Sarasota. It was a beautiful sunny day (Sunday, November 9, 2008). We walked down to the end of the island where there are these huge trees that are lying on the beach and have been there for years. When the kids were little, we took them there and had so much fun taking pictures by the trees. We walked around looking at the trees and I picked the perfect spot. We didn't have any ceremony, I just slowly poured his ashes out in the Gulf of Mexico and sent him on his journey. It was hard to do, but did give me a little peace.
