While Bradenton, Florida might not be the most sought after destination…it does have it’s hidden jewels. The beaches are beautiful (and there is actually parking), the people are friendly, and now to add another to that list…you can find some great live music here. Downtown consists of about 5 or 6 bars, all of which are decent, but on Sunday and Tuesday evenings, something special happens and the sounds of blues and swing come out of Corks cigar bar. You almost can’t help but be drawn in…

Our visit to Seattle was short and sweet. Other than finding an amazing spot to see the skyline and hang-out at Gas Works Park, we felt a little lost as one usually does the first time visiting a larger city. I really enjoyed seeing this city for the first time and hope we will return again one day to get to know it better. As a photographer I feel sometimes a photo is worth more than words…so as I’ve done a few times before here and here, a photo tour of our day in Seattle.
