The Mucky Duck is a popular restaurant on Captiva, an island just beyond the island of Sanibel, Florida. The food at the Mucky Duck is good, but the setting might be even better, especially at sunset. I think Susie still wears her old Mucky Duck tee shirt.
The Hartford Courant has a headline, "Potentially Historic Blizzard to hit Connecticut on Friday." Hartford is expecting up to two feet of snow today. One forecasting service predicts snows up to three feet. Good luck, folks.

What a difference between the two parts of the country! It rained heavily here in Charleston, but the area needs moisture so no complaints. This area of Captiva looks divine...one could almost "worship" that scene.
Beautiful light, Jack.
We are getting snow here in Ontario too. It's actually very pretty as long as you don't need to drive anywhere. :))
The Mucky Duck is a favorite with the entire SDP staff. It's changed somewhat, though, since it was sold recently. My favorite time to go out there is between Thanksgiving and Christmas -- pleasant weather, zero noseeums and few tourists. Enjoy the sun and warmth, Jack!
Happy lucky people there, I'm here so envious, I would love to be there in this wonderful place enjoying the adorable sunset! Glorious day there!

Very nice scene and it makes a nice picture.
Sweet Jack! Enjoy.
Sure-rub it in!
this is a great shot, jack. hartford, boston, providence all expecting a pretty hard hit. we'll get a foot or so here in vermont, nothing to fret about, i think.
I was curious whether you are down in Florida rather than in Connecticut for the big storm. This time you are in the right place at the rigtt time.
What a serene picture... the sun looks beautiful caressing the waves.
A beautiful scene. Wish I was there! Time to get ready for the storm, which they are calling "Nemo."
Good place to be right now..and lovely colors in that sunset.
Looks like a perfect unobstructed view.
I just took a look at a New York web cam to see if it had started to snow but, all I saw was rain. But, it sounds like the north easterners will be digging out soon.
So very beautiful!definitely different than what I'm seeing out my window right now.
how pretty!!
are you in hartford or in florida?
snow here has just started... tiny flocks...
I like the way people seem to be atracted by the light .. Gorgeous!
And yes, good luck to those who will ne under storm.
What a contrast between the serene photo and the menacing weather in Connecticut...
Awesome capture, Jack!! And aren't you glad you're not in Connecticut right now!!! The East coast has had more than their share of crappy weather that's for certain!! Enjoy your warm and sunny weekend!
We've eaten at the Mucky Duck - a long time ago. Fun place. And aren't you glad you're not stuck up in Hartford?
Did you ever notice how everybody is a photographer these days?
tres jolie photo ;o)
Beautiful sunset! Wherever you are, have a safe weekend!
A glorious last look at the light at day's end. Stay safe in the storm!
Beautiful sunset spent with family or friends!
Love Captiva ~ Gorgeous photo!

A beautiful image Jack
Ahhhhh....to be there right now!
Wow! small world ~ I used to teach at Salem State and step son went their and his Dad taught there too ~ name was Ronco ~ thanks for coming by ^_^
A very gorgeous setting indeed.
I'd rather like a 'Mucky Duck' tee shirt Also Jack, very cool. What a glorious sunset..how warm does it get in Florida Jack? For example here in Perth the next four days the weather is going to be over 40C, how does this compare..what I'd give for a frosting of snow!
What a lovely moment : sunset and family reunion at once... Nice choice for the day.
Isto é o que eu chamo de sobremesa especial! Lindo demais!!!
Ahh...Heaven!
This is such a stunning image!
We live in a shrinking world, where you know home has snow, but you toast your sunset with barefeet in the sane.
What a view, Jack!
Reading this now a few days after that storm. Connecticut got hammered!
