I just returned from spending several weeks in Tampa, Florida. The weather was hot, of course. July and August are hot everywhere.
It was also extremely humid and stormy. Of the 48 days I was there, it stormed on 44 of them, sometimes several times in one day. With all that heat and humidity, of course you get some rather splendid tropical vegetation. Here are some of the photos I took.

A lovely variety of pictures, flowers, trees, water, buildings–o my.
All for your viewing pleasure. 🙂 I have many more, including video. Can one get too much of a good thing?
As Oscar Wilde put it, “Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess.”
I have read that Wilde’s last words were, “Either these curtains go, or I do.” What a wit, right up ’til the end!
As Alexander Pope put it in “Essay on Criticism,”
“True wit is nature to advantage dressed.
What oft was thought but ne’re so well expressed.”
