Road lane closures this weekend 5/12-5/14

[beachmouse]

Heads up to y'all. From today's Daily News:

" The Florida Department of Transportation has authorized Sandestin to close the outside westbound lane of U.S. Highway 98 near its western intersection with County Road 30A from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday through Sunday. The left-turn lane from CR 30A onto U.S. 98 will also be closed.

The closed lane of U.S. 98 will be used by shuttles taking fans to and from off-site parking on the north side of the highway.

The DOT said motorists can expect delays and congestion on U.S. 98 from Danny Wuerffel Way in Destin east to U.S. Highway 331 in Walton County. The department said it will post message boards throughout the area advising motorists to consider alternate routes. "

Oh, Kitty, you really crack me up with this one!!! :funn:

Saw a boat the other day and thought of you and in my mind, that's exactly what I heard.......

Cobia's Running!!

I don't think I will be able to see a boat on the gulf without hearing that in my my head!!!

Half ironman= 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run

Bike course does a bit of an out and back through eastern PCB before sending you north on that insanely bumpy road through the state forest. Run is a zig-zag between the Boardwalk Beact Resort to St. Andrews SP and back. (dodge a couple of construction cranes along the way)

The redneck race is the Mulletman triathlon that the Florabama Lounge on Perdido Key puts on every year.
