Destin, FL our 5 star RV park. Great place one block from the beach, however it was never really warm enough to sit on the beach. It was very very windy as well.
I was going to do a load of wash - went to get the sorted clothes and turned around and here was my Cuddles taking a nap in the washer. That is really really cute, however this is a combination washer/dryer and once you close the door and start the wash it locks and you CANNOT get it open. Thank goodness it is a small washer and you can see BEFORE you close the door.
This is the Memorial for Hurricane Katrina. The live oak tree is over 200 years old. There was a glass enclosure that had dolls, jewelry, purses, shoes, etc. that had been recovered during the clean up. This town has come along way but has alot more to do. You would drive down the highway and there would be a building either restored or destroyed and then you would have 5 lots that had homes or building and they were totally gone.

Does not look very good buy OMG was it great food. It was featured on the food network's "Diners Drive-Ins and Dives" Also was part of the "Bama Que" on the food network challenge. The Shed Barbeque & Bluesjoint.
These are carvings that were done in the medium of the highway in Biloxi, MS. There were live oak trees that were destroyed during Hurricane Katrina. These were sculpted by a very famous saw sculpture.

There was downpour of rain and the wind was very very strong. We pulled in one of our slides just to be on the safe side. The tornadoes went north and all was well. That was close!!!!
I have several more pictures and will download them to Picasa. We have been in New Orleans since Monday and have visited 7 plantations, ate at a very very local diner and had red beans & rice & sausage. Stay tuned for our adventures in NOLA.
Becky thanks so much for your help with the pics!!
MMMM BBQ from The Shed and then red beans and rice in Nawlins!
ReplyDeleteI saw the Shed on Triple D. It looked awesome. I made beans from our leftover ham last week, and then made some brown rice to put in it. With my cajun spices, it was good, but never as good as being in Nawlins! sigh . . .
ReplyDeleteIt was just as good the second time around, however, nothing stands up to "our sister trip" to Nawlins. I again, ate my way thru.
ReplyDeleteI love BBQ’s. :D Having a place one block from the beach is a very nice place to stay since you’ll have all the time in the world to enjoy the beach. Hehe! There are a lot of great food in Destin, and I hope that you’ve tried most of them. It’s been a long time now and I hope you have visited us again here in Destin.
