Easter weekend has coincided with local schools' spring break on Anna Maria Island and resulted in long lines of traffic to the island in the early part of the day, and long lines leaving the island later on.
So many have come to enjoy the surf, sand and sun and other charms that there are insufficient parking spaces at the public beach. The result? Parking along Manatee Avenue and even more traffic tie-ups.
Saturday morning has dawned foggy. Right now the island is quiet. Soon enough, though, we'll be bustling again.
Just be patient with the traffic. Get on 'Island Time.' Open the windows and breathe the salt air. Be open and generous in your driving style. Have fun! It's spring break.
And peace be with you. It's Easter, too.
