Friday we met Sunshine Cindy’s parents at TGIFriday’s. Rick waited on us and he was his usual crazy self. We then decided to head to the harbor as it was going to be a nice sunset. We went to the Boathouse but it was packed with Snowbirds so we headed up to the Red Door Saloon. We had a few beers. $2 happy hour prices can’t be beat. We also watched a couple of dogs playing as one had the others lease in his month and was trying to “walk” the other.

We left there and went to Crab Island Cantina. Dave and Marilyn were there as well as Dave’s daughter Sabrina. She was home on leave from the Air Force. It was good seeing her again. Greg and Dominic were behind the bar. After a while, Carlos the owner came by and wanted to talk to me. He wanted my opinion on a possible new venture. It sounds exciting and I hope he can make it work. We talked to him and Dominic for a good while about past lives as music promoters. Carlos actually hired The Judd’s for $500 right as their song, “Mama He’s Crazy” came out. That was a good bargain!
On the way home we stopped in at Rotolo’s Pizza. The crowd was thinning out at the bar. Blake was the bartender and Berg was there again too. Not too long after we sat down I felt someone grab me. I turned around and there was Kenny and LeeAnna. They were looking for us and happened to see BadAss in the parking lot. That was cool. We had fun catching up with them as it has been a couple of weeks.
On Saturday someone turned the wind machine on and it got a lot colder. We had to go back down to the harbor for a while and were almost blown over. Saturday afternoon we had a “Chase Away the Winter Blues” party at KC’s Sandbar in Ft. Walton Beach. We were upstairs and there was a heater to help keep us warm. Brandon Day played music and our big group had a blast. Jan and Kenny even sat in and did a few songs. When it ended, some of the crowd went to a bonfire.
Fun at KC's
We were not in the mood to sit outside in the cold and wind so we headed to the Legion for Karaoke. Judie and Kelly joined us. The place was packed with snowbirds. We had one drink and decided to move on as we were not feeling it there with the ‘birds. We went to Sago where they also do Karaoke. It was a lot of fun there. We saw a ton of friends and most had been there since early in the day so they were not feeling any pain. Kelly, Judie and Sunshine Cindy all did songs.
Cheers at Sago
Sunday was a much more laid back day. I had to go out for some errands and decided to stop in at Landshark Pizza. I had not been there since Brian and Sue got back from their vacation. Brian was there and he was training a new girl. It was Julie who used to work at Beef O’Brady’s in San Destin. She was there to open Beef's and 7 years later she closed it. The landlord raised the rent so high it was not profitable for them to stay open. Glad to see her at Landshark. The rest of the day was spent at home relaxing.
Enjoy your week. It’s warming back up. Spring is right around the corner here in Paradise!!! See ya Thursday!
