Evening lights at Mallory Square

People are sitting at the pier and waiting for the sunset...

while in the mean time all the sunset cruisers are leaving the harbor.

The Liberty Clipper just finished setting up the sails

for sailing into the setting sun.
Last night was not a spectacular sunset at all, like the nights before.
The sky was free of clouds and in a cold winter color of orange and yellow.

Magic Sunset

Joy of Color - Joy of Life

Just Beyond The Sunset

Just beyond the sunset
Someone waits for me
Just beyond the sunset
Lies my destiny
Where the purple mountains
Lie in deep tranquillity
There I’ll find the treasure
Of love eternally

Just beyond the sunset
Waits someone so fair
Just beyond the sunset
All alone they wait there
Their hair is golden
The colour of the sand
Their eyes sparkle in the night
Like diamonds in your hand

Just beyond the sunset
Lies a home for me
Where the world is peaceful
Like a paradise should be
Just beyond the sunset
Someday is where you’ll find me

Written - July or Aug 1966

Mallory Square Impressions

This is my lovely husband, David, with his booth at Mallory Square, where he is selling his original Fine Art Paintings and prints of Key West scenes and tropical subjects. He is a very talented artist and his work can be found all over the world in many collections and private homes.

You can see more of his work on our website www.vanhulstart.com

Here you can see the big traffic that we have almost every evening and especially on weekends, like yesterday. A lot of the visitors were Jimmy Buffet's Parrotheads who had their fun weekend on the island.

And this woman looks somehow like me.... with two customers at my booth who are looking at my photographs that I sell.

If you look closer into the picture, you will see Alex (with the hat) our performer guy with his juggling act shortly before sunset. Can you see what a wonderful, dramatic sunset going on in the back of the picture?

People from all over the world are watching this spectacle at Mallory Square.

And this is the fantastic view that I have (almost) every night at Mallory Square. I would never ever trade this place with any indoor job in the world. To be able to see mother nature's magic and to be "at work" in the same time, is priceless!
