Floridays

This impression of coastal life is both timeless and universal, a classic in every sense of the word by a talented vagabond who roamed the world from Paris to the South Seas before settling down in the Sunshine State. Flamingos set against a tropical sunset, pelicans wheeling above turquoise waters, and tarpon leaping high into the moonlight, along with the first trickle of tourists seeking respite from the rest of the world, were but some of the things view from Don Blanding's own special viewpoint. His poetry illustrated with his own pen was at once wry, witty, and always on the mark. Don Blanding took Florida's spirit to heart, then expressed it in a way which locals and visitors alike might still enjoy, time and time again.
