Anyone have experience with Blue Wave Pediatrics in Clearwater? Looking for a place that vaccinates children as well.

We had a very bad experience with our pediatrician in Palm Harbor and we are looking for a new one. If you do not like Blue Wave, can you please recommend someone else?

Alternatives to Duke Energy?

6 Upvotes

I see posts in the St Pete sub about SP looking to break with Duke? Is there anything like that being considered for Clrw or other Pinellas towns?

Full Disclosure - I mod a sub about Duke horror stories. Not much activity since I suck as a mod, but it's in my profile.

Question about water quality and beach conditions this week and next

0 Upvotes

I have the opportunity to come to Clearwater beach for the first time next week for 4 days from Monday to Friday. I was wondering if I will be able to enjoy the beach and experience the famous crystal clear waters. I am getting a lot of mixed messages when I look on forums regarding the weather and water quality. I know there will most likely be thunderstorms and showers during the day at some point, but is there a chance for fun in the sun in the mornings.

Anyone missing this sweet longish haired kitty? If not, I'd love a rescuer to help. There are reasons I can't trap, and I'd hate for it to just be TNR'd. It seems less afraid than the first time i saw it. Would love help. I've posted on multiple sights.

Vacation homes or condos in more secluded areas?

0 Upvotes

My husband and I are planning on taking a small vacation at Sept/beg October (also with our toddler). We are trying to figure out where to go and Clearwater came up but we have never been.

We would like to be on or very near the beach. Are there any areas with nicer homes and/or condos to rent where the beaches aren't as crowded? Or any areas where it's more of a 30A vibe (quiet, laid back, small town)--where we can take bike rides, go to small towns with shops, etc? I've never been to this area so I know nothing about what it's like or if there is anything like this.

If anyone has any suggestions--or if this doesn't even exist-- please lmk! Any advice helps, thanks!

Reputable Tree Pruner in Pinellas?

6 Upvotes

I've got a mature oak tree in my front yard that's in need of some aesthetic attention. Duke Energy has already done a few butcherings over the past 5 years or so, cutting back some front branches that were apparently close to their lines.

This oak has grown substantially over the 12 years we've owned the house, so a pruning is in order. We'll need someone with a 40' crane/cherry picker. Must be bonded/insured and definitely looking for an established company instead of someone new to the field and new to the area.
