As the boys and I were walking through the beach neighborhoods, I had to snap a few shots. I just love how charming the little houses and hotels are in this area, and it is such a treat from the construction we are normally surrounded with. Just a mile down the street, the beach area is dominated by huge hotels and Trump is building even higher.

Good eye, J.R.
I loved looking at all of these but my fav is the pink and green door and overhang.
I too always enjoy the range of colors when visiting. It's nice to see colors used that aren't commonly used around here.
