This used to be a place in Destin, probably in the late 60's or early 70's. There used to be a giant green knight statue outside. It was on hwy 98 and at the time not much else was around it. I was very young but remember seeing it from the road.

I have a vivid childhood memory of sitting in the parking lot staring at the green knight while my aunt was inside stocking up.

I know - I'm sure my aunt would love this post. Good thing she's not a sowaller yet. But bless her heart...she did have to drive all the way to Destin to get liquor. That was a big trip since my family left Grayton once or twice all summer - to go the PX to go grocery shopping and to take the kids to Miracle Strip Amusement Park.

1. I'm glad that is something you have never heard your Mama say!
2. Which aunt is not a sowaller?
3. I love you princess!:love:
4. The Green Knight was the the lankmark that we were approaching civilization going from Grayton to Destin.

1. No, we definitely grew up with a "dry" immediate family.
2. Your brother's wife
3. I love you, too!
4. I've been in the mood to do something touristy lately, like play putt-putt in Destin and eat crab claws.
