Labor Day Weekend

Here comes Labor Day Weekend. It is always with some sadness we celebrate Labor Day because that is the unofficial end of summer. With all the rain we have had this summer it seems like we have not really had much of a summer. Hopefully our fall season will be nice as this is the best time of the year in Destin. Crowds are down and the temps are still nice and warm.

Sunshine Cindy and I only got out on Monday this week. It was a perfect evening so we headed to Landshark Pizza to get out of the house. Some of the usual suspects were at the bar including B and Kerby. T was waiting for some delivery orders while Stephanie and Jason were serving and cooking. Sunshine Cindy and I hoped they still had some of their Italian Sausage left. I have had this sandwich in the past and it is great. Brian was still there and he made us the sandwiches special. Thanks Brian! And they were just as good as always.

Landshark Pizza

It was fun hanging out with our friends. Kerby was his usual crazy self. We ended up on some strange conversations but that is not unusual for that crowd. Sunshine Cindy had a chance to talk to Stephanie about our upcoming wedding. Stephanie has a side business making cupcakes. I think we will have Steph make a “cupcake cake” for us. Stephanie is originally from Ohio and is a big Buckeyes and Browns fan. We usually suffer each Sunday during the season watching the Browns. LOL

Tuesday was spent at the house getting ready for the weekend. Wednesday we were planning to either meet up with Julie and her friend Dean who got into town from Louisiana earlier in the day OR maybe we were going to head to KC’s Sandbar to listen to Jan play OR we talked about meeting up with Wayne and Mike Nash. Mike got into town Wednesday also in advance of his Southern Drawl bandmates. Turns out both Sunshine Cindy and I ended up working late. By the time we both got home and changed it was getting later and we decided to just stay in.

Let's have a pool party

We have a full slate of activities planned for the holiday. Tonight (Thursday) Crab Island Mambo is helping promote the Southern Drawl Band’s show at Crab Island Cantina. They play starting at 9 pm. No cover charge and everyone is welcome! Then Friday from 6-9 pm The Calypso Nuts will be at the Cantina. Again we are helping to promote the show. These back to back shows on the harbor will be a lot of fun. Crab Island Cantina is at the far west end of the harbor boardwalk in Harborwalk Village.

Saturday we are invited to a pool party. That will be a lot of fun. Finally on Sunday Crab Island Mambo and Landshark Pizza will be hosting the “ETC at LP Party.” (Embrace the Chaos at Landshark Pizza) Jan Patton will be playing from 1-5 pm. Food and beer specials will be available. The party will be on the sidewalk in front of Landshark in the Old Time Pottery shopping center in Destin. We always have a great time at these parties. Again, everyone is welcome to join us.


Okay, time to head down to the harbor and get our Southern Drawl Band fix. Have a great weekend. I will have a full report on Monday of all the Chaos! See ya Monday!!!
