Day Two Hundred Seventy One 2013

EVER LOVIN SATURDAY











This morning was a bit cool but nice. The wind on the beach was relentless. Not many people here right now. Lazy day. Watched some football. Sat on the beach and read and watched the waves and read some more and maybe even snoozed at one point. Made some white chicken chili in the slow cooker for supper which we enjoyed with daughter Kelly, son in law Kerry and grandson Knox [they brought Key Lime Pie for dessert!] Witnessed another awesome sunset. Time seems to slow down at the beach but then it all seems to be going by too fast.

Happy TGIF from Destin!

Day Two Hundred Sixty Nine 2013

A Day At The Beach

One picture is worth a thousand words, they say, so I’ll let these speak for the day we enjoyed today. Good times in paradise. [I saw some dolphin fins this afternoon ~ I was hoping the dolphins would jump up out of the water and do some tricks ~ maybe next time ~ now I can say I’ve seen dolphins in the ocean]

Day Two Hundred Sixty Eight 2013

Destination ~ Destin

We arrived in Destin around five o’clock this afternoon. Our trip was easy and uneventful ~ yay! The weather is beautiful here but the waves are choppy and high ~ someone was surfing out there.

Destin sunset view off daughter Kelly and son in law Kerry’s tenth floor balcony. 

Enjoyed a crab leg dinner at Fisherman’s Wharf seafood restaurant. So good. What a treat! [especially after Slim Fast for breakfast and lunch]

We went for a stroll on the boardwalk to check out the boats and found a friendly pirate making balloon animals and such. He made Knox a pirate sword.

Yo Ho Ho! Knox was a bit intimidated by the pirate but liked the sword. The pirate gave Kerry that balloon parrot that was sitting on his shoulder. It’s wonderful to be here again. Our first floor condo is very nice. Looking forward to a good night’s sleep. Neil and I are tuckered out.

My hubs Neil is heavy into radio controlled airplanes ~ building, flying, crashing, repairing, embellishing. He recently finished installing all these colorful lights on one of his smaller planes. He enjoys night flying, and his planes can be seen from the interstate since the flying field is nearby. It’s pretty cool and more fun than grown men should be allowed to have.
