Dunedin, Florida: Mahole Cover: Vintage 1989

Dunedin, Florida: Mahole Cover: Vintage 1989 Anybody out there remember 1989? I know it happened, but please don't ask me WHAT happened.

Well, I guess I could at least say that this manhole cover was cast in 1989, if nothing else happened. :)

Dunedin, Florida: Mother Nature Awaits Her Opportunity

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Mother Nature Awaits Her Opportunity Call me anti-social, but I love to see evidence of the fact that Nature is always standing by, patiently waiting to reclaim what we have taken from her.

We mine and process and build, and we re-shape the planet to our whims, but no matter how hard we work, Nature never stops working against us. I take great pleasure in watching it reclaim a bit here and there. :)

Dunedin, Florida: Four Reel Silverton Heading Out To Sea

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Four Reel Silverton Heading Out To Sea If you get tired of playing tag with the waves on the beach, you can head out into the Gulf of Mexico for some serious fishing. This is the Four Reel, snapped as she headed out through Hurricane Pass and into the Gulf.

According to sources I found through Google, Four Reel is a 2000 Silverton yacht, registered in Palm Harbor. She is 46.5 feet long, and I think she is designated as a 42. I wouldn't want to have to fill her tanks these days, but she is a fine looking vessel! I'm guessing you could get a LONG way out in the Gulf with her!!

Dunedin, Florida: Honeymoon Island Beach: Childish Joy

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Honeymoon Island Beach: Childish Joy There is nothing quite like the pure joy of childhood innocence. This young lady was having such a good time playing tag with the waves. When is the last time you made it out to Honeymoon Island Beach?

I had lunch with my beautiful niece the other day. Although grown and graduated from college now, I can remember her as a much younger girl. Life is an amazing adventure.

Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Marina Pier Sunset

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Marina Pier Sunset Have you been to the Dunedin Marina in the evening lately? It's really nice. The sunsets from the pier are awesome, and just as nice as from the beach, without having to manage all that traffic.

That being said, it's also nice to get down to the beach to. Hey, don't forget Honeymoon Island Beach. Although the main beach can be a bit rocky, the pet beach is really quite nice in my experience.

Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Real Estate: The Color Yellow

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Real Estate: The Color Yellow I have to admit, this house reminds me of a paint company commercial. I mean, WOW, that is a YELLOW HOUSE! I wonder if there is anything inside referring to the Beatles Yellow Submarine?

Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's a bad color at all. But I do feel a bit overpowered when I look at it for any length of time. I just don't think I would have the courage to paint my house that color. Of course, at least nobody is going to walk off with it, you could spot them a mile away!

Dunedin, Florida: Baseball Fan's Sign To Heaven: Knology Park

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Baseball Fan's Sign To Heaven: Knology Park If you are a baseball fan, you know what this sign is all about. Not to belittle it's roll as the location of the recent, and for Dunedin historic, rally featuring the Presidential candidate Barack Obama. Did you make it to the rally?

But more importantly, Knology Park, or Knology Field, is home to the Toronto Blue Jays for Spring Training! Sounds like a pretty good combo if you ask me... a vacation to Dunedin, Florida to enjoy this beautiful area, and a chance to take in a few Toronto Blue Jays games during Spring Training at Knology Park.

Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Real Estate: Rental?

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Dunedin Real Estate: Paloma Lane Rental? Now, as it happens, I seem to pass by this house several times a week. Based on what I see happening now and then, I am pretty sure it is a rental. Too bad it doesn't have a garage anymore. It's not uncommon to see people convert garages to living space.

It's kind of deceptive looking from the front, in that it seems kind of small, but according to the tax records, it has over 2,000 square feet! And if you are wondering about the value of Dunedin Real Estate, the tax appraiser has this house at $187,700 Just/Market value. That translates into more than $3,600 in property taxes! Oh, and the lot size is 75x152.

Dunedin, Florida: How Is YOUR Mailbox Holding Up? Got mail?

Ever wonder if the mailman takes it personal when he has to put mail in an old worn mailbox like this?

Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Building Architecture Styles

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Building Architecture Styles I admit it... I know nothing about this building. I don't know what they do there. I don't know who owns it. I don't know what the cross street is.

Well, I guess I know a little: It is on Douglas, about a block north of Main Street in Downtown Dunedin. I know that, although I am not sure the style matches the neighborhood all that much, I kind of like it.

Dunedin, Florida: Jeep Spotting At The Marina: Jeep Wrangler Sport

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Jeep Spotting At The Marina When I saw this Jeep Wrangler Sport at the Dunedin Marina recently, it seemed like something right out of a Jeep television commercial. With the soft tops all peeled off, and the bright yellow color with the shiny clean wheels, it just seems to shout "Buy me, I'm FUN!"

How about that license plate on the front bumper, eh? That's right, it says U.S. Marines! Nothing but respect for our folks in uniform. No matter what I think about the politicians that send them to war, no matter what I think about whether or not we should be there, I respect them for putting it on the line for the rest of us. Thank you Armed Forces!

Meantime, I've never owned a Jeep, at least not yet. I've thought about it. I think my brother had one once, but not me. It could be fun. But these days, I think I would want to find one with a four cylinder! (Oops, just hit the digital highway and found tons of them right here in the Dunedin area.)

Did you know that Amazon.com has a whole section devoted to Jeep Wrangler? Yup. You can help support Dunedin Daily Photo by shopping for your Jeep goodies with these advertisers:

Dunedin, Florida: Rain Lily - Zephyr Lily

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Rain Lily - Zephyr Lily Zephyranthes grandiflora It seemed like such simple thing... take a picture of a beautiful flower blooming in someone's front yard. Well, that was the simple part! Trying to convert my knowledge of its common name into a website link for the post was another adventure altogether.

There are lots and LOTS of plants that have very similar names to Rain Lily and Zephyr Lily. Also, once you narrow it down, you find LOTS of different versions of the family. I believe the scientific name of this beautiful plant is Zephyranthes grandiflora. That is according to information I found on the USDA Plants Database website. Anybody out there know different?

Dunedin, Florida: Lake Paloma Landscape View

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Lake Paloma Landscape View Lush Green Vista Lake Paloma, Dunedin, Florida. It's just a small little lake in an out-of-the-way corner of Dunedin. But it is pretty, and relatively peaceful. Surrounded by a cozy little neighborhood, with a variety of housing styles and values.

Hmmm, does it sound like this message was brought to you by the local Chamber of Commerce, or perhaps the local Real Estate board? Nope, just me appreciating a little slice of Americana right here in Dunedin, Florida. That's why I take pictures of Dunedin, Florida, because I like it! :)

Dunedin, Florida: Perfect Pair Nail Salon And Spa Snapped this welcoming looking place while wandering around Downtown Dunedin recently. Not that I have been inside or anything, just wandering past!

I could not find a website for them though, so if you know anyone down at A Perfect Pair, have them contact me about getting a one page informational website up and running... so people can find them and learn about their services! :D

Dunedin, Florida: Tropical Sunset Over Dunedin Marina

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Tropical Sunset Over Dunedin Marina I was fortunate to catch this beautiful sunset over the Dunedin Marina recently. It's a very Florida scene; the palm trees, all the boats, the open waters and the low landmass in the distance. Let's face it, this is a big part of why people love to live here.

Ya know, it is SO easy to forget how beautiful it is outside. We all get so terribly caught up in the day to day struggles of mortgage payments, feeding our families, and keeping our jobs... It won't solve all your problems, but I can tell you this, if you can get out to some fresh air somewhere; a park, the marina, a beach or the causeway, it may just lighten the load on your soul somewhat. You are not alone.

Dunedin, Florida: Blur Dance Club In Downtown Dunedin

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Blur Dance Club In Downtown Dunedin If you are looking for action in Downtown Dunedin, this might be a good place to start. I don't know much about it though, I'm afraid, but it seems like it might just be a blast of a place to dance. And hey, dancing is good for your soul.

I tried to find a website for you all, but could not find it in ten clicks or less. Maybe next time. Happy Friday!

Dunedin, Florida: Historical Society Museum

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Historical Society Museum This is the scene they have set outside the Dunedin Historical Society Museum. These are some old traveling cases, loaded onto some sort of old wagon. I think I have some old family stuff in storage, that looks a little like these. Oy!

This being 2008, any such place needs to have its accompanying sign warning folks not to use up the place and damage it. However, it is nice to see that there are some public restrooms available nearby! The museum is located in the middle of the Downtown Dunedin district.

Dunedin, Florida: Ducks Gang: Corner Of Hibiscus And Paloma

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Ducks Gang: Corner Of Hibiscus And Paloma It's true! Gang activity right here in Dunedin! These ducks are a real treat to see here at the pond. They seem to be doing well, and growing in numbers.

Hopefully people will not decide that the ducks are too happy, and decide they have to go. That's how people get, it seems, they get so they don't like to see ducks getting happy and doing well and having families. I hope they leave this group alone.
