Bull Dozers on The Pointe

What a great week we have been having weather wise. Temps in the low 80’s during the day and 60’ish at night. Fantastic! Monday when I got home from work, Mama Mambo and I jumped in BadAss and went to The Pointe. We wanted to get some sunset pictures of our new T-Shirts for the Crab Island Mambo web site. They have completed the dredging of the harbor entrance and all the sand is piled high on The Pointe. Signs are all over about not walking on the dunes but then they have a bulldozer parked on them. So you can’t walk but you can bulldoze across them!

The pictures turned out great. The sunset was magnificent as usual. Another couple came by remarking about how nice it was and I said we had to get out and enjoy it as we only get about 300 days a year like this! We stopped at McAllister’s Deli on the way home and enjoyed a good sandwich.

Beach Party

The other evenings have been spent working on Crab Island Mambo stuff. We have a new flyer we are developing explaining what we do so we can put it into the goodie bags for Rendezvous.  Tuesday night we pulled up the DVR of Jimmy Buffett’s concert from Gulf Shores, AL after the oil spill. It was fun watching that.

This past week Destin had a diver die in the water at the Jetties. This is a dangerous area because of the shifting tides. What can be almost calm can turn quickly. Destin is one of the few places in the world that only gets one full tide cycle a day. As the water funneles through the pass, it is very powerful. If you come to visit, be careful and check the tide charts.

Friday night is parrotheads at Crazy Lobster on the harbor. It will be fun. Till the next time…
