Your Morning Sift

Good morning.

Easing into a lazy Sunday morning here, folks. Enjoy your morning Sift.

A- Miami Condo Investments reports that there were two very expensive condo purchases made in the final days of 2012 on Miami Beach.

B- Eye on Miami gets philosophical this morning after a day on Biscayne Bay.

I don't make religion of the environment, although that is exactly how the Great Destroyers describe the 'zealotry' of environmentalism. But I do believe that the natural order makes observable, as though through a keyhole, the grand, breathtaking beauty of the planet we share. To me, it is a tragic mistake of organized religion to imagine there is another place -- a heaven -- that awaits us for good personal behavior that somehow fails to account for our destruction of natural order.
