What is SRQ - Side Realm of Queensland? You went all the way to Australia for your vacation? Is that why the sky is so impossibly pretty!!??

The water was about 68 degrees, you can hop in for a few minutes but it gets cold after that pretty quick. I was in Sarasota, SRQ is the airport abbreviation.
tinypliny - 12/05/09 17:47
Are the waters warm there? What was the average temperature of the beach water when you were there? When were you there - thanksgiving break?

I love that sand - I need to go and walk on white sand. I miss walking on sand. :)

The building in the first two pics is a condo.
paul - 12/03/09 22:37
The sand castle almost looks like. I am so jealous of your vacations.
jbeatty - 12/03/09 20:07
What is that building in the first two pics? Is that a single family home?

B-Lo near the TOP!!!

I was shock to see that Buffalo is #16 on this list of fastest recovering cities and where I currently hanging out is currently #93.



I guess it was a blessing that we didn't base our economy on building condos to provide jobs to non union unskilled labor, real estate whores aka "Flippers" and douchebag loan officers. :-D
james - 11/30/09 11:16
Look at some of the other cities on that last. Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany are all on there.

Yup, the fading gems of the rust belt are all recovering. That makes me think their methodology was a little wonky.

Though, seeing genuinely prosperous cities like Omaha and Austin on that list are good signs.

I think you are right. When you are near the bottom, you have less far to fall. Buffalo is a post-industrial economy wasn't attractive to investors looking for short term gain. Some here lamented this. In retrospect, being outside of the prevailing investment trends may have been a good thing.
