Some Mighty Competitors Out There

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Daytona Condo Realty, 386-405-4408

Being in vacation and event spot means that you get mighty competition. I remember my lazy photos of Shuttle launch made from Ponce Inlet, and before I got down to my condo from the garage, which was couple of minutes, and wrote a short blog, I was stunned to see a blog post already published by Gary Woltal, and boy, what a phenomenal photo of this Shuttle did he have there.

I have never been that close to the Shuttle in my life. It felt like he was with the crew there, so freaking close, that you sort of could see it not only this up close, but feel the thunder…

He beat me big time…

Yesterday I saw a photo of the beach, and right away I knew it was MY beach. Read the post, and yep, Mike Cooper descended on the Beach in Daytona Beach Shores, where I live. Imagine what he would do having 2 weeks vacation? :)

Daytona Beach Shores

So, guys, for the next 2 weeks you will have the double share of photos from Daytona Beach Shores, the place I call home and Mike calls vacation home.

Looks like we will have a mini meet-up with Mike at a Thai place, the food is good but spicy there, so do not be surprised if our photos come out a bit blurry.

But for now here are my two photos taken Saturday. It was a bit windy but perfect weather. Water in the ocean is 78F (25C).

If you are looking for a place to retire or a perfect vacation condo, call me 386-405-4408. (Do not call Mike, he is on the Beach :)

Looks like a wonderful place to live. I live in Yountville in the middle of the Napa Valley and we too have a zillion tourist who come for 1-5 days year round. Makes the Town packed most of the year which has its pluses and minuses. cheers cvc

It was gracious of you to admit your competitors got the better picture. A meet-up between you and Mike - how fun! That actually crossed my mind when he wrote in his blog that he was headed for Daytona.

Hi Jon, Love this and if anyone has a referral for Daytona area, you are the man. Take Mike a Mai Tai ( several in fact) and he will stay asleep in the sun, LMAO. There is no place like Daytona Beach. Loved it and your photo is terrific.
