Wewa or bust!

[Ocean Lover]

The first day of school scared me to death, girls with skoal and boys named Broke Neck. (I could not make this up)

Has Wewa progressed since then?:shock:

Has Wewa progressed since then?:shock:

I think the lucky13's would say yes, but I haven't been there (yet). "People actually move to Wewa?" is a direct quote from someone on this board.

Has Wewa progressed since then?:shock:

hmmmm, well maybe they have 2 restaurants now, but the motel is still the 'only one. I go back every now-and-then for the honey festival and to see my family. Most of Daddy's sister's (5 out of 9) still live there and regularly attend the First United Pentacostal Church of Wewahitchka. A few of them are sporting in their new hove arounds due their tremendous size. :roll:

Safe travels Lucky's!!!! I hope you have a warm welcome in Wewa!!!!

Does Wewa have Wawa's (that's the name of convenience stores somewhere that we have lived ~ but can't remember where). That's when you know that you have moved one too many times. Anyway, enjoy Wewa!!! You are certain to liven the place up.

The honey festival is really cool; better by far than Apalach's shrimp festival .
We are still enjoying the tupelo honey we got in Wewa.
And you have not lived until you hear the Wewa High School battle cry:
Weeeeeee-WAA!
People *do* move to Wewa; especially the ones who, because of property values, can no longer afford to live in Port St Joe.

Daddy's from Wewa! The correct spelling is Wewahitchka, I went to 7th grade there, back when Daddy operated The Wewa motel and restaurant. I stress "The" because it is the only one. Eight rooms, perfect for long road trips and fisherman of the dead lakes. Get a dip cone at the restaurant.

THANK YOU!!!

THANK YOU!!!

I'm guessing you must love dip cones.

I'm guessing you must love dip cones.

I'm thinking she was thankful for the explanation. I understand the confusion ... I actually thought of Wewahitchka, but the rest of the story didn't compute. I admit it. I learn something from SoWallers every day. Good luck to the Luckys!

I do! Nothing like a good old fashioned soft serve cone.
