(Fishing off our pier was fun but nothing worth cleaning/keeping, just a few 'grunts'.)
Stayed right on the water (actually a Bayou) across the bridge from Mike's Sister Shelly and husband, Jim. Family visit time, lots of good meals and going down memory lane. Pensacola (Home of the Blue Angels) has the locally famous Joe Patti's fish market (don't miss this if you ever visit) and Peg Leg Pete's for the best ever baked Oysters Rockefeller. Downtown, there's the Fun Urban Dining Al Fresco (a group of Airstream trailers turned food carts) and for Sunday Brunch enjoyed Five Sisters Blues Café. Great southern cooking (best fried green tomatoes) and live Jazz quartet. And a visit wouldn't be complete without going to the beautiful, fine white sand shores on Pensacola Beach and the local fishing and boat docks. His crab trap never 'runneth over' but Mike did catch a few big ones! (Fishing off our pier was fun but nothing worth cleaning/keeping, just a few 'grunts'.) Mike has always wanted a wood burning pizza oven and his dream came true recently when Ron found a Mexican terra cotta oven! Check off another bucket list item and add a new dimension to our "GLAMPING" lifestyle! As we are posting this, we are watching weather (Tropical system 9) as it moves disorganized into the warm Gulf. If all goes well we are off to the Mississippi Gulf Casinos for two days before moving to NOLA. As of now the State Park (Bayou Segnette) across the Mississippi is still closed after having some flooding from the rain event that devastated Baton Rouge. Stay tuned!
