It's the most wonderful time of year again...We shellebrated the holidays the weekend at the Captiva Golf Cart Parade with fabulous floats! Since the parade began in 2009, I've been decorating our Junonia Jalopy to take part in this quirky Christmas ritual... but not this year. This year I was honored to be a judge. But I couldn't be just any judge- I had to break out a shell or two and decorated myself as a ShellElf to help NBC2 news anchor Kellie Burns and writer Steve Winston of WorldPropertyJournal.com judge the cutest little parade on the planet. I wish you could have seen these carts in person because they looked so much more amazing than the pictures but The Snowflakes were creative, frosty, sparkly and bright. They won first prize for Non-Commercial decorated golf cart. They were so stinkin cute!

Captiva Christmas Parade Gets Xtreme
Would you call us dressing up our golf cart with a 5 foot JUNONIA along with nine 3 foot shells to make it a Junonia Jalopy … a little Xtreme for Christmas? I'd say it was Xtremely fun! How about that South Seas Resort dressed up like elves to drive their Elf Mobile around in Captiva Village? I'd say they are Xtremely adorable! Do you think a convoy of YOLO Watersports scoot coupes in Santa hats running the streets of Captiva would be Xtremely cool? This is the sweetest replica of the Chapel By The Sea sitting on top of a golf cart… soooo un-Xtreme. On second thought- it's kinda an Xtremely perfect little mini Chapel By The Sea. There's nothing wrong whatsoever that Doc Fords' golf cart has Christmas trees growing out of its top. Errrrr…. Well, riding "Rudolphin" down Captiva Drive might just be a tiny bit Xtreme but Kingfisher Vacations lets that crazy red nosed DOLPHIN join in any sincere games. Oh Okay. Maybe Captiva is Xtremely nuts. We had six Mixed Nuts nut …
