Busy weekend

It has been an exciting couple of days on the Emerald Coast. Mama Mambo and I went to Hogs Breath Saloon on Thursday evening. We sat at the outside bar and watched the world go by on Hwy. 98. Cam was tending the bar and we had a nice surprise when Chuck popped in. We sat and talked with Chuck while having a bite to eat. It was starting to get a little late but Mama Mambo and I decided to go check out a new place called Rotten Apple. It is on Mountain Drive and was the old Oasis. We went inside at Hogs and talked to John for a bit before we headed down the road.

There were only a few folks in Rotten Apple when we got there. Curtis was behind the bar. A very nice young man who talked to us for a long time. People were coming in and out. The place has a very laid back feel to it. I hope they can make it. They are still working on getting all the permits and such to sell food too. That will help.

Fun crowd at Crazy Lobster

Friday night was a Parrothead meeting at Crazy Lobster down on the harbor. It was a great time. There must have been over 130 people show up. Music by a band called, "Something Fishy" and the normal phun and excitment of a Parrothead gathering. Mama Mambo did her usual great job leading the crowd in several Team Drinks too. We left and planned to meet some friends at Lower Alabama Lounge to hear some country music. They are now charging a cover at the door, we didn't want to go that bad so we headed home.

We had a full day on Saturday. We decided to head to the harbor. Went to Tightlines and Wayne joined us. From there we headed over to The Red Door Saloon. 2 for 1 beers and some biker friends from KC's were there. Mama Mambo got a hot dog and we sat out on a new patio area they have. Left there and headed to The Boathouse. Rusty was playing and we listened to him for a while. Catfish even stopped in to play the "saw." There was a group of girls come in celebrating one of them having a birthday. They ended up on tables dancing hanging from the rafters. You never know what you will see at The Boathouse. We left there and Wayne headed home. Mama Mambo and I stopped at the stage outside AJ's to listen to Ronnie Satterfield. He is really good. While there Kathy and Don wandered by. We chatted with them for a while about all things Niceville. We left, made one more stop at Rotten Apple then headed home. A fun day.

Dancing on the tables at The Boathouse

Sunday was spent at The Pointe. Russ, Ginger (Russ's dog), Bill and Wayne showed up. The weather was perfect. A great day at the beach. That took up the whole day. Can't get enough sun and sand!

Till Thursday.....
