Destin in the Spring

One of the nice things about living in Destin is being here this time of the year. The spring break crowds are gone and the summer season is a month and a half away so the roads and restaurants are less crowded right now. Add to that the weather is warming up and you have reason number 689 as to why we call this area paradise! There are people already in the water at Crab Island and the boating traffic is picking up considerably. I love living here in case you had not noticed.

Destin Beach

The first couple of days this week was spent getting ready for our trip to Panama City Beach. We will be there this weekend for the Parrothead Rendezvous. Over 500 of our closest friends will be there. We were getting all of our Crab Island Mambo merchandise ready as well as our decorations. It will be another great time on the beach with Trop Rock music and good friends. Other than that, Monday and Tuesday was pretty quiet.

Wednesday was a different story. We picked up Dennis and headed over to KC's so Dennis could do some guitar picking with Jan and the other sunset sing-a-long folks. Well, turns out there was a band booked so no one played but we still had a great time. The place was packed and just about everyone we know was there. Of course Jan and Loujean were there plus Wayne, Kenny, Scott, Michele, Terry, James even Russ made the trip over two bridges to come out. Matt and Melissa were behind the bar. Jan was in fine form as Mike bought him a couple of shots of Jagar. That got him wound up! Even though Dennis didn't get to play any music, we all had a great time as usual.
