WE CAME HOME SUNDAY FROM A VERY DISAPOINTING WEEK IN DESTIN FLORIDA.
IT RAINED EVERY DAY EXCEPT TUESDAY, THE TEMPERATURE DROPPED BELOW 50,
IT WAS COOL.WINDY, AND VERY WET. BUT NOBODY CAN CONTROL THE WEATHER SO MAYBE NEXT TIME WILL BE BETTER. WE STOPPED TO VISIT SOME RELATIVES IN ALABAMA ON THE WAY DOWN, AND ENJOYED SOME VERY GOOD BAR-B-Q IN BIRMINGHAM. THE OWNER, "BUCK" WHEAT, IS ONE OF FIVE CHILDREN OF JAMES PAUL WHEAT WHO IS THE SON OF OUR AUNT ROSALEE....SHE IS THE SISTER OF MINE
AND GENE'S DAD. HIS BBQ JOINT WAS WRITTEN UP IN THE WALL STREET JOURNAL AS THE PLACE TO VISIT FOR AUTHINTIC BBQ WHEN IN BIRMINGHAM.
AFTER A DISMAL WEEK IN DESTIN, WE HEADED HOME VIA GEORGIA AND HOOKED UP WITH MORE RELATIVES FOR A GREAT DINNER AT AN ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN CHATSWORTH. SUNDAY, AFTER CHURCH, THEY HAD A CHURCH REUNION IN THE FELLOWSHIP HALL WHERE WE WERE EXPOSED TO MORE GREAT SOUTHERN COOKING...AND FELLOWSHIP WITH THE CHURCH MEMBERS AND RELATIVES. OUR AUNT SIS WAS THERE...SHE IS 94 AND STILL VERY ACTIVE. OUR COUSINS JACK MASSEY FROM ATLANTA, AND JACK JOHNSON FROM KNOXVILLE, WERE ALSO THERE
THERE'S NOTHING LIKE SPENDING TIME WITH RELATIVES THAT YOU DON.T GET TO SEE VERY OFTEN.I TOOK A FEW PICTURES THAT YOU MIGHT FIND INTERESTING BUT I CAN'T GET THE HANG OF IT TO PUT THEM ON THE BLOG. I'LL SEND THEM TO THE "COMMISH" AND ASK HER HELP ONCE AGAIN...LOVE TO ALL....DUNN DONE

What a shame the weather didn't cooperate. I've always heard such great vacation stories from others who've visited that location in Florida.
Hey man we have taken my boat out in inclement weather and filled the cooler. What have they got in Flordia a bunch of wimps???
And by the way Sandy,a red sky at night is a sailors delight.I think Jeff will agree with me.
