When November finally trots around, Clearwater running enthusiasts know that the Times Turkey Trot will soon be getting underway. This is the largest running event in the Tampa Bay, drawing nearly 16,000 participants. This road race is for competitive runners, recreational runners and walkers of all ages. When you pay your entry fee, you'll get a t-shirt. Trophies are awarded to the top finishers and all the proceeds go to help local charities. Additionally, non-perishable food items are collected the day of the race and are donated to a local food pantry.

Clearwater's dazzling natural beauty is well worth celebrating. You can do that by booking your trip on board the Sunset Celebration Cruise. The cruise departs from Clearwater Bay through Clearwater Pass and into the Gulf of Mexico, touring the most beautiful waters surrounding Florida. Enjoy the breathtaking views of the shoreline and sunset while your captain points out some of the many points of interest along the way. The friendly crew will make sure you are comfortable as you enjoy complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks. And, don't miss the special champagne toast at sunset.

For something a little different tonight, get ready for the classy nightlife experience that is Bobby's Bistro and Wine Bar. Located a block from the beach, this is an extension of Bobby Heilman's main restaurant and offers delicious a la carte dining in four separate dining rooms. The wine bar is the obvious highlight, as its extensive inventory includes more than 20,000 bottles. The menu is equally impressive, featuring such delicious fare as sherry garlic shrimp, a half-rack of JamAsian baby back ribs and gourmet pizzas.

Sharing time together is a truly essential ingredient to keeping that romantic flame burning. It also doesn't hurt to raise a glass to your love with the help of a fine bottle of wine. Take that idea a step further when you plan a special date to the Murielle Winery. This family-owned winery offers guided tours that show visitors all aspects of the wine-making process from the vineyard to the wine press to the bottle. Also, there are wine tastings held on Saturdays, so plan to make the trip to Murielle Winery this weekend for a romantic date that is worthy of a toast!
