While working on the lanai, I had looked out at the neighborhood houses– pistachio and apricot colors and surrounded by green, green, green.
It helped to remember something I’d learned on AMI… I started a new semester of teaching, had a second eye surgery, and my Mom made a second trip to the ER that led to a week in the hospital. Though the ambience wasn’t the same, all turned out well.īut as is always the case with coming “back to reality,” there were challenges waiting. I tried to replicate recipes for The Waterfront’s Hearts of Palm Salad, Columbia’s 1905 Salad, and Marina Jack’s Watermelon Cosmo. I hope, more than anything, you’ll be inspired to remember dreams you’ve deferred and go after them.Īlba and Cindy: Empty Nesters Trying On a Beach Home Dream If you’re looking for a home-away-from- home for spring, summer, fall, or winter break on a beautiful island… or a new place to land… please watch the video. She also showed us how she made remote learning at the beach an amazing educational experience for her kids. Morgan was also a guest on my podcast where she educated us on how to own, manage or book (safely) a Florida property. Summer 2020 I featured AMI and rented her Bradenton Beach bayside condo ( ) with my friend, Traci.
When I learned that Alba Gonzalez-Nylander of AJ Media Services –a friend for over a decade– is one of them, I asked her to join me on this 2nd getaway/project to live like a local on Anna Maria Island and explore what it offers.įirst, a big thanks to Morgan Henderson who invited me to check out her new property 400 steps from the beach. It turns out that other empty nester/single mom friends have been doing the same. After the pandemic closed borders, I continued scouting Florida’s western coast ( see the series). When I was a child, I wanted to live on the Gulf of Mexico. He has since fulfilled his dream of moving to the Colorado mountains, and I’ve remembered an even older dream. Before the pandemic, I discovered the Clearwater/St. When my children left the nest, I fulfilled an old dream of living abroad. Is living the dream working remotely somewhere over the rainbow where sunsets turn electric in kaleidoscope hues? What’s your Dreamscape? Is it an island surrounded by emerald green under a sky of cumulus clouds and blue?
