Our destination, located on quaint Pass-A-Grille beach! We checked in early afternoon, July 4th.
Our charming room! Place was very quiet and right across the street from the beach.
First up ... cold fruity drink and walk on the beach!
Next up, 4th of July barbecue supper and fireworks in downtown St. Pete with ...
Mom Mom
and Pop Pop.
We waited for the show on the veranda with coffee and champagne!
St. Pete put on a great show! Hundreds watched from the downtown waterfront.

The next morning, there's nothing like hot coffee overlooking the sea! Had breakfast, then it was off to the beach!
Was a beautiful beach morning. Water was very refreshing. We got there before the crowd!
That afternoon, our wine time was spent on our hotel front porch .
We mingled with other guests, and one of the locals wandered by ...
Meet Smuggs. He was very friendly and happily posed for pictures.
Dinner that night was at Sea Critters. Maybe some lobster pasta ...
or some grilled salmon. It was all delicious!
Saturday morning breakfast - back at the Paradise Grille.
Was going to be the best beach day yet! Never did rain. Just plenty of sunshine and gentle breezes!
Water was very calm and slightly cool! We spent quite a bit of time cooling off in the surf.
Our beach camp. Comfy seating and shade from the sun!
Linda and Dave joined us for wine time and dinner for our last night in Pass-A-Grille.
Another beautiful sunset to close another wonderful beach vacation!
