Lovely time in Florida

   My wife and I had an enjoyable time in the Tampa area last week. We ate very well, spent some time on the Gulf at Clearwater Beach, visited my cousin and his wife, and visited many nice places. I even finished a poem and thought about some others.
 
  I will post a few pictures here, and provide some music to look at them by. Frederick Delius' family wanted him to go into business, and sent him to northern Florida to manage an orange grove. Instead he listened to American music, including African-American music, and wrote "Florida Suite" after his return to Europe. The work actually premiered in Leipzig, Germany in 1888.
