Destin spring

It’s about time Spring is making its way to Destin. Mid 70’s during the day makes it pretty nice to be here on the coast. We will take it.

This week we made one stop after work. Monday I went to Landshark Pizza for a while. Some of the usual locals were there. Pops and Jenny were there. Turtle and Ashley had a baby girl earlier that day. Everyone is doing fine. Brian’s brother Greg was there too. He was supposed to be on his way back home to Wisconsin but when he got to the airport he was told he was bumped to a flight the next morning. He didn’t get any message or notice about this. It was US Air. Thankfully I never fly them. They did tell him they won’t charge him the rebooking fee! The rebooking they did without his knowledge. That was nice of them….

Greg at the Boathouse!

Down on the harbor plans for the new establishment where Aloha and Tipsy Turtle were located are moving forward. Johnny Fuller from the O’Quigley’s fame is building a big place pretty much like I heard it would be. I think the same architect that designed the new Margaritaville is also designing this building. It will be three stories with a bar on the lowest boardwalk level. The mid level will be a restaurant and the top level which will be the same level as Hwy 98 will be a club of some type. Once again I wonder where everyone will park to fill up all these places.

The old Freaki Tiki bar down by the Boathouse is now open as Coach’s Raw Bar. They have had live music on the weekends with the same general layout as previously. It’s another place to keep the harbor on the east end jumping.

Wendy’s Kitchen is serving to-go meals from the Beal’s shopping center near Wal-Mart. They have a different selection each day. We will be checking them out soon.

Crab Island Mambo tee shirts, tank tops and some long sleeve shirts are available. The tanks and tee’s are perfect for the warmer weather we are having. “Embrace the Chaos!” with your own American Made shirts from Crab Island Mambo. Don’t forget that Harbor Gifts on the boardwalk is also carrying our shirts. Stop by there to see Tom and Sandy!

Have a great week. See ya Monday!
