I know y'all are probably already sick of my trip, but here goes for those interested.

Day 1: (Saturday) Loaded truck and waited for children to arrive. Left at 4:30 am. Stopped in East Texas, bought T-shirt for son, drove through NOLA and Mississippi coast. Heartbreaking. Arrived at beach. Threw down luggage and walked straight to beach with Corona in hand. (Plastic glass). Went to bed early.

Day 2: (sunday) Went to Destin Wal-mart:eek: One of many grocery trips. Picked up mr. dd and went to Dewey Destin for lunch. Delish! End of Boat Week in Destin. Thousands of boats at Crab Island. Beautiful water. Back to the house and to the beach.

Day 3: (monday) Beach day.
Day 4: SoWaller Day. See other threads. Best day. :wub:

Day 5: Back to Dewey Destin for lunch again with mr. dd. hobbling all the way. See warning about Budweisers and Boardwalks. Read entire book that I bought at Sun Dog...."Of Days Gone By" (thanks, bsmart)

Day 6: Beach day. Saw water spout.

Day 7: Took mr. dd to airport. Beach day. Saw jumping dolphins. Ate dinner at the Back Porch in Destin.

Day 8: Drove home. :(
