"Some folks see a birds eye view
That horrible winter is finally behind us and the lazy hot days of Summer are approaching quickly. This time of year is that space in between when the world seems to awaken. It is now that the azaleas put on a fantastic show. Those green bushes that pretty much go unnoticed the rest of the year are suddenly flush with colorful blooms. They truly are a sight to behold. They have a short blossom period so take some time to walk or bike and enjoy one of nature's best performances.
What a view! This photo was taken from the back deck of the Boondocks where, along with a gorgeous view, you can also enjoy a cocktail and yummy pizza at Helen Back Again or delicious cajun fare at D'wons Bayou Buffet. We've been to both several times and can honestly say you will not be disappointed. The food and drinks are great and the service is top notch. I'm not sure when it is expected to open, but I'm told that the Drunken Sailor Seafood & Spirits will also be at that location. Something like this has been badly needed in our area for some time now. Hooray for a new Navarre business that exceeds expectations!
Today is the 4th day of Spring and the clouds in this picture remind me of the little bit of Winter that just will not leave our beautiful area. Yesterday, the high was 54 degrees. That's 16 degrees below normal. Today's projected high is 69. Much better! During my run on Saturday I saw a single azalea bloom. It was a wonderful reminder of the warm days ahead. Soon the cold lonely beach in this picture will transform into a coastline full of lounge chairs, umbrellas and sunbathers. I will be there too.
