Florida Keys Sunset

I took these pictures out on the water after a happy hour spent swimming, talking and admiring the views.Sometimes the sunset over Newfound Harbor can be excessively spectacular but this year the absence of rain clouds means the sun sets in a clear blue sky.
We have no lights on our skiff. It's part of the drive for simplicity after spending so much time fixing stuff on our sailboat while traveling. After we came ashore I wanted nothing that might need repair, so we dispensed with instruments and lights. So as we approached the entrance to our canal we needed to be sure we would be tied up at our dock at home before dark. Besides who wants to be in the water at dusk when the predators come out.
One of these days I'll tear myself away from the comfort of my back deck at sunset and join the wild crowds at Mallory Sqaure. One of these days. I promise.
