Miami

11pm
I decided to make a quick trip down to Miami to spend a few days with Peter. I drove down late morning today, had lunch in Ft. Myers, and checked into hotel around 3pm. Staying at the Courtyard by Marriott right by Miami Int'l Airport and I must say that I'm quite taken by this place. It's recently been extensively renovated, and I do mean extensivey. OMG, I wish I could hire the decorator to come do the condo.While I didn't bring my camera, I have taken some pics with my cell phone. Several have already been posted on Facebook, but I realize Mom and Auntie Kutchy don't have access to Facebook. Below is a picture of the computer area in the lobby. All computers are Sony brand. Nice.

The humidity level down here is substantially more than Tampa and I arrived with a sinus headache. But a nap before dinner and aspirin before a nice dinner at Islamorada Fish Company relieved it.

The restaurant is attached to a Bass Pro Shop. While waiting in the lobby area before exiting, I strolled over to the store and a group of pictures caught my eye. Not that I want pictures of fish, but the artist was Guy Harvey (never heard of him) and he had a nice logo of his name. Here 's my version of it:

I wrote it out the best I could, using the folder for my hotel room key. I've since tried it with my name, but I just don't have the right letters. It really needs a name with tall letters that could extend above and below the line. I think this one would look good, it's the name of the daughter of my boss @ SunTrust: Stephanie Serravezza. I think that's a pretty name.
