Cat on Trial



This bronze, entitled Trial Scene (1997), is by Thomas Otterness and sits in front of the Vero Beach Museum of Art. The sculpture, cute as it is, really comes to life when one notices what is protruding from the defendent's mouth.

Open House



In spite of a housing vacancy of about 20% in our county, there are those Floridians who still dream dreams, or perhaps just have a wonderful sense of humor. This is an undeveloped home site in our Bent Pine community. Click on the photo for a better view of the sign.

Piliated woodpecker



This beautiful bird alerted me to its presence by hammering on our cedar shake roof. It wouldn't sit still for a pic on the roof but here it is in our big live oak tree behind the house. What a sight!
