Quiet week in Destin....so far!

With all of the rain we have had, our emerald green water has been dirty and murky due to all the runoff from inland. It looks like we are just about back to normal as the dirt and silt have had a chance to settle. It’s time to be waist deep in the gulf again!

Waist deep in the gulf...

This has been a very quiet week so far. I was able to get out and ride my bike a little. I dodged some rain drops but nothing heavy. The evenings have been spent working on Crab Island Mambo stuff. We have a busy weekend coming up so there was preparations to be made. We also have the new order of tee shirts, tanks and long sleeve shirts at the printer. We have also ordered some pendants with our logo on them to check them out. I can’t wait to get them.

Some changes are coming to the Winn Dixie shopping center in Destin. A new bar is going in where Kirkland’s used to be. It is supposed to be a wing place with tons of taps for craft beer. The grand opening is going to be sometime in August. I drove by there the other day and a lot of work is taking place.

Beers ready and waiting

There is also a new building going up on the lot that is on Hwy. 98 in front of Winn Dixie. I have heard a new restaurant is coming to town but I don’t know for sure if this is where it is going or if something else is going in there. They don’t have any signs up yet so it is a mystery.

Work is moving along on the new Margaritaville on the harbor. They totally gutted the old structure and are building a brand new place. It is going to be a great addition to the harbor. Also on the harbor the new zip lines are up and running. You can see people screaming back and forth! LOL

Margaritaville to be in Destin soon!

We will be seeing the Calypso Nuts tonight (Thursday) at Crab Island Cantina and Trop Rocker John Friday Saturday afternoon at the Cantina. It is going to be a fun weekend. A full report on Monday!
