Last Weekend, I went to a beautiful wedding at Tampa Bay Watch, a small place near Ft. Desoto in Tierra Verde. The ceremony gave us a beautiful view of the water and the reception allowed us to watch as the sun set over the Gulf.
Hubby and I have been so busy. We’ve been exploring the Tampa Bay area like never before. We’ve got new restaurants and stores to share, events, and some great giveaways.
I’ve really been having a lot of fun in the Florida sun! I really just need to find some time to get caught up on everything. In the meantime, here’s a few pics from our latest trip to Ft. Desoto Beach, which is very quickly becoming one of our favorite places around Tampa Bay. Have a great day!
I’ve been to Channelside on multiple occasions; to watch a movie, have dinner, go bowling, stuff my face with chocolate, etc…
In all my visits there, I’ve never noticed that the bowling pin outside of Splitsville is actually an American original. That’s right, Tampa is home to the world’s largest bowling pin! The world’s largest bowling pin towers 30 feet above the Channelside Courtyard at the entrance to Splitsville.
I knew Tampa was home to the world’s longest sidewalk (Bayshore Blvd), but who knew we had this great piece of Americana right under our nose?! Ladies and Gentlemen, you can mark this one, off my bucket list!

My New Years Eve was spent at the improved and newly named Tampa Bay Times Forum. It was a great night with friends watching Lightning Hockey. The forum has been remodeled, and what a great job they did! There are more open spaces to watch the game (or concert) while grabbing a bite to eat. The seats now have drink holders, and there is a real organ for that authentic hockey game feeling.

I had the opportunity to do a paid focus group today in downtown Tampa. I can’t tell you what company it was, but I can tell you it was chocolate and it was yummy! Seriously, it was so good I didn’t need to be paid to eat it, but the money was nice! While on the 37th floor, I took the opportunity to snap this shot of Tampa Bay with my cell phone. It was such a peaceful view from up there. Good thing I don’t work there, or I’d never get any work done with that view.
