I attended the first ever New Years Pelican Drop in Downtown Pensacola this year with a few lovely ladies. Check out the 1,000 pound, 13-feet-tall, 17-feet-wide Pelican.
Later, the lovely ladies and I ran into a couple familiar gentlemen. Left to Right: JP, Sarah, Jen, Nick, Brittney, Noel. 
Even later, the Pelican made a shaky descent into 2009. Cue fireworks.

The fam and I spotted this fiery sunset on the way home from a funeral.
And I spotted these angry clouds on the way home from work.
Whilst on an afternoon stroll, Sarah and I happened upon a crazy lot of acorns.
I swear I’ve never seen so many acorns in one spot before.
And this little gem was amongst them.
