An "Orange" Christmas

[Tony Laubach]

For the second year in a row, I escaped winter storms in Denver to enjoy warmer times in a place that will never (for me anyway) hold a candle to the mountains... from South Padre Island, TX, I enjoyed this scene every morning I awakened from my beach-front hotel... my last day just before venturing back to cold, snowy Colorado provided the best shots...

I will trade a white Christmas for this everytime...

Hope everyone had a warm Christmas and will enjoy the coming New Year... best to all!

Very nice shots there Tony. Definitely looks like a very nice place to visit this time of year! Escaping the cold would be a welcome break to be sure. I am jealous! :)
