Gulfport is a delightful Florida throwback. It sits at the water's edge on Boca Ciega Bay and has its own little beach. The big trees, brick-paved roads and old Florida homes give it a distinctive feel. Sometimes it looks a bit worn but then you come across a treasure like this lovely flower-adorned building. We went to visit a photo-friend, Robert Scrivener, at his booth there at the Art Walk on Friday night. His photos were all the more amazing when printed! Apparently Gulfport is a hive of artisans and we enjoyed cruising among the various booths.
It was a very chilly night - the first smack of fall weather down here, but still a sitdown at the water was lovely. The strong breeze made good sailing and this boat was running at a decent clip. There's not much of a skyline here, but somehow that feels old-world-like too. It fits right in with Gulfport!
