Wordless Wednesday: Saying Goodbye to Summer 2011 at Stump Pass Beach State Park, Fla.

The last day of Summer 2011 is tomorrow and I spent my final day off of the season at Stump Pass Beach State Park in Englewood, Fla. I walked the beach hunting for fossilized shark’s teeth, listening to the shorebirds and soaking up the sun. I was in good company with other beachcombers and fishermen. This is my favorite shot of the day along with a brief video.

Enjoy!
