Skyscrapers are forbidden in our little town. The skyline remains as it has been for many, many years, except for the temporary bridge to replace the Bridge of Lions while it is being disassembled, restored and rebuilt. No commentary this week, only a true shoot-out.

I lied. This is the temporary Bridge of Lions construction mess.
**** Thanks for visiting. See you next week.
Gorgeous pictures. I never got a chance to visit St. Augustine when I lived in Florida, but everyone talked about how beautiful it was. Someday I will get there.
ReplyDeleteGosh Gordon, I went hog wild on my commentary, LOL...great photos, and I hopefully will come check it out on my own...or is the bridge my only way in :)
ReplyDeleteI can never get enough of your pictures from St Augustine, such distinctive architecture and the exotic look of those old rooftops. Not to mention the palm trees! Great shoot-out.
ReplyDeletehi Gordon, don't have to be a stranger - I've not gone anywhere. After looking at Rio through a magnafying glass this past year for FSO - being lost in its bigness, you town seems so simple, so innocent to me. have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat church is so beautiful. Also loved the shot with the flag.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the church is beautiful...all of these are so crisp and fresh to the eye :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you, Gordon.
I always enjoy your photos and this week is no different. I really want to visit St. Augustine to get an up close and personal view of all this wonderfully detailed architecture I see in your photos.
ReplyDeleteI love the skyline in your photos with the boats. Very pretty.
You have such a variety of options from boats to cars to trees. Very nice presentation.
ReplyDeleteYou sky sight lines were really beautiful. It is so nice to see the boats in the water and that warm Fla. sunshine. Great post, Gordon!
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes, Barry and Linda
I love your construction mess skyline, maybe I just love the sight of a crane against the sky. All your photos are lovely, the trees, the church are favourites.
ReplyDeletebeautiful town Gordon! love the downtown area and we have cranes galore here too! always construction going on. have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteI am looking at your header photo, where did you take it? I mean how come the cars are in the "wrong" place?
ReplyDeleteYou didn't come to New Zealand. did you? Amercian friends come here and say we drive wrongly.
It is the Interstate Highway (divided highway).
ReplyDeleteFinally made it back to St. Augustine. Staying at the virtual Holiday Inn and enjoying the skylines.
ReplyDeleteBeen missing you. But I think about you, friend.
Great photos.
Gordon, how's fishing over there? I love your place the St Augustine very much and I like the 2nd photo most.
ReplyDeleteFishing could not be better. Hope things are going well for you, Redlan.
ReplyDeleteNice! I like the shot with the American flag. Especially since I'm finally getting to look at everyone's skylines on Veteran's Day!
