Clearwater Florida Celebrates Holidays in Style
Clearwater Florida – Today was the City of Clearwater’s Annual Clearwater Holiday Parade and also included a downtown Festival from 11:00 am to 4:00pm.
The Parade began at Crest Lake Park and Cleveland Street was closed from Crest Lake down to Coachman Park.
Here’s a shot of the Costco float with my friend, Tim Glenn, getting into the fun. Costco Wholesale located in the Clearwater Mall is a great supporter of the City of Clearwater and our community activities. We are lucky to have them in our community. Bright House is another company that goes above and beyond and today was no exception – they were here in full force.
While it was overcast in Clearwater this morning, it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. When the parade began it was obvious it showcased Clearwater community pride and participation from some of our leading community organizations like out local Boy Scout and Girls Scout troops, High School Bands, all the Clearwater City Commissioners, the Mayor, Frank Hibbard and the City Manager, Bill Horne, clowns, non-profits, leading businesses and more. We enjoyed festive floats from:
- The City of Clearwater Parks and Recreation;
- The City of Clearwater Celebrates Diversity;
- City of Clearwater Float;
- Hooters Restaurant;
- Clearwater Gas System;
- Bright House Network ;
- Costco Wholesale;
- Morton Plant Hospital;
- United States Power Squadron Safe Boating Float
- The Threshers baseball;
- The Boy Scouts – Copperheads;
- Santa Margarita Krewe;
- Univision Tampa;
- Krewe of the Shamrock;
- Crewe of Hernando DeSoto;
- lil Red Wagon Clowns – Largo, Florida;
Here are some of the photos I took – thought you’d enjoy the Holiday fun – The great part about Clearwater is that there are always fun things to do here.
Beads and candy were a plenty for the children along the parade route.
Clearwater is a city that hasn’t lost that local flavor of a good city parade.

There are so many fun activities going on in Clearwater and Pinellas County this holiday season.
Tonight there were several Holiday boat parades in Indian Rocks Beach, Madeira Beach and Tarpon Springs.
We have noticed lots of our Clearwater neighborhoods and our neighbors getting into the Christmas spirit with lots of lights and decorations – seems to be a season where everyone is feeling festive.
Maybe it’s part of the effort to remember it’s December when it’s 82 degrees in Clearwater Florida in December. 
Wishing you time with family and friends to enjoy the upcoming week – can you believe there are just 10 days until Christmas – Are you ready?

Clearwater Beach Florida’s Pier 60 - Sunday’s Sunset
December 9th, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Clearwater Florida, Parks and Recreration, Sunday Sunsets, Tampa Beach Living, Things to do, Waterfront Living
Clearwater Beach Florida Sunset Series
We thought it was only fitting to use a photo from one of our favorite sunset spots of all time – Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach Florida.
It’s a place where we “celebrate” the sun setting each day with performers, crafters, music and more – we give Key West a definite run for their money. Kids enjoy the 2 playgrounds too.
If you have a sunset you want to share just email it to me at cyndee@sandbarstosunsets.com
We are treated to some of the most majestic sunsets each day in Clearwater Beach Florida and the surrounding beaches. We’re lucky because Pier 60 is home of the Best City Beach, Clearwater Beach – and it’s in our backyard.
We get to experience the magic evening as we relax and enjoy watching the sun settle into the Gulf of Mexico. In Clearwater Beach Florida we always take our sunsets seriously.
This week is now over and we are looking forward to the upcoming week with our family from Philadelphia Pennsylvania that’s visiting. Did I mention it was 80 degrees on December 9th 2007 – sunsets seem better when you’re watching in your bare feet with the white sand between your toes. – Wish you were here!

Wishing you a great upcoming week – we’re off to spend some time outdoors with the boy’s grandparents – camping, fishing and enjoying more sunsets! We all wish you a great week!
Gotta a local sunset to share – won’t you share?

Sunday’s Sunset | Tierra Verde Florida Beach Sunset at Fort Desoto Park
December 2nd, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Sunday Sunsets, Tampa Beach Living, Things to do, Tierra Verde Florida, Waterfront Living
Clearwater Beach Florida Sunset Series
Here’s the second in our series of featuring one of the best parts of Clearwater Florida real estate – our beautiful Tampa Bay sunsets. Living on the west coast of Florida great sunsets are just one of the perks – living on coast – beach sunsets are just the cherry on top. Here’s our favorite sunset of the week that we took. If you have a sunset you want to share just email it to me at cyndee@sandbarstosunsets.com
This week we ended the week after Thanksgiving with 80 degree weather in Clearwater Beach Florida. Can you believe it was the start of December as well – all the vacationers liked that.
There is something magical that touches my “imagination” as David Henry Thoreau poem says when the sun dips each evening into the Gulf of Mexico. The clouds and variety of colors definitely had my creative thoughts going while there’s also nothing like it to relax me . Being from Clearwater Beach Florida we take our sunsets seriously.
We even have a nightly celebration at Pier 60 so if you’re looking for a place to catch a sunset from you can always count on Pier 60 for the nightly sunset and festivities.
This week we enjoyed a beautiful Tierra Verde beach sunset and the contrast of the darkness of night as the sun dipped down. Because there are no lights around Fort Desoto it creates a sunsets of shades and shadows of a different kind. The boys were camping there with the local Boy Scout Troop.
