The Digs

I am not one to buy something sight unseen. so I have been researching apartments in St Pete. Tom already has a job lined up but will not start getting paid for probably 3 weeks once he starts. We agreed that a residential hotel would be the best bet. So many of them do not take pets so it really limited the options. Then I came across a lady who is from KY and we really hit it off over the phone. she has apartments that she rents by the week (all utilities included inc wi-fi). She said to call her when we start done and she will find us someplace nice. If it is not exactly what we want, we can move when one comes available.
Google maps is amazing. I love being able to get a street view. Sometimes when I am down I pick a point in Saint Petersburg and "go for a drive." Anyway. I have searched out some of the buildings and their locations downtown. I must say that I am not horrified by any of them.

this one is my favorite.

very close to Mirror Lake

pretty and very cheap but sadly next door to a Halfway House. Ummm..only as a last resort.

Like this one a lot too!

These are all in the main downtown area and within walking distance to many wonderful things such as The Pier, The Salvador Dali Museum, the Aquarium and several interesting looking eateries. I am getting very excited!
