Juno Beach, before the bad weather |
Got antsy last Friday at work so decided at lunch I'd take a drive over to Juno Beach which literally takes about 4 minutes with traffic (nice huh?). The remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal were sitting on the Bahamas at the time and you could see the clouds off in the distance that would be rolling on top of us soon. There were a handful of people at the beach soaking in the last of the sun before a very wet and dreary weekend. Going to the beach regardless of the weather still makes me smile. Whether the water is just barely rolling onto shore, or crashing in like a crazy person, it's still calming to me. If everyone would just be able to visit the coast and chillax for a moment every day, this world might be a better place, right? Well, I know that's a very fairytale view of life, but it's still a happy thought I like to amuse myself with once in a while. So as I was checking out the scene you see above, I started thinking of all the songs that either mention Florida or some other tropical locale. Here's what I came up with, can you think of more?
Key Largo - by Bertie Higgins
Miami - by Will Smith
Outta Here - by Kenny Chesney
