fer pete's sake, it's as purdy as a postcard.



uh...can we take a second to read the beach report? EIGHT NINE degrees? based on the the sunset time, I assume this was taken in the summer. But still. Bath water. I'm so jealous.









There's definitely a slow growing trend to salvage tired motor inns, doomed for destruction, giving them a new, hipper vibe. Postcard Inn on the Beach St. Pete's Beach, Florida is one of the newest examples of the concept. When the motel {built in 1957 as the Colonial Gateway Inn } was purchased by a large hospitality development organization and doomed for demolition, the neighbors chose to save the 204-room, two story, U-shaped motel and reincarnate it as a bohemian, well priced surfer chic hotel.


I'm still so envious of the fact that the Gulf Waters are 89 degrees. We're lucky when it hits 69, here in L.A.
