Why I Live And Practice Law In St. Petersburg, Florida

Head to St. Petersburg Florida Now - Southern Living. Once a place where the elderly sat on green benches downtown, and there was nothing open after 6 P.M., my town has become a foodie destination, and an exciting home for artists, musicians, and other creatives. It is vibrant, and still not taken over by big city chaos, traffic and crime. My office is a short 5 minute drive from some of the best restaurants in the U.S., and, as this article says: "we already have a walkable downtown; front-porch neighborhoods; funky old buildings; and access to the arts, parks, and recreation." Add to that some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and year round sunshine. Add the Chihuly Museum, the Dali Museum, and Sunken Gardens, a botanical paradise, and the city becomes the only place in the Continental U.S. that checks all the boxes for a great living experience. Okay, I am biased, as I have lived here for 50 years; but, come visit and see for yourself.

Google Cultural Institute Project Lets You Visit The Guggenheim On Your Computer

You Can Now Wander the Guggenheim Right on Your Computer | WIRED. I am not an art expert. But, the coolest thing about the Guggenheim is the circular staircase of the Frank Lloyd Wright design. While Google is doing good work making 360 degree tours possible, the future of such visits is in Virtual Reality. I have visited the Louvre with my Gear VR and you can walk around in a gallery with sound effects, and, when you walk up to a painting, a simple click gives a narration of the painting from an art expert. Some of the paintings are presented in 3D. So, go to New York in person if you can; but, at least, visit via Google Cultural Institute, and, sometime in the future, check it out in VR. Brave new world.
