Always Something to Do in St Pete Beach, Florida –
We call it home. It’s our home away from home really, but the second we cross over the Pinellas Bayway and see the Don Cesar looming ahead of us in all of it’s pink glory, we breathe in the salty sea air and say “we are home”.

This has been a dream of mine since I was 14. Words cannot even express how happy I am when we walk into our place after suffering through our cold Kentucky winters. The First Time I Fell In Love Florida The first time I visited Florida I was 14 years old. It was 1973. All six of us piled into my parent’s station wagon and traveled from Louisville, Kentucky to Tampa to meet…
