Just to the left of the above pic where the blue roof public restroom building is there is a groovy little beach bar with the best "Bushwackers" in the area --

of course the absolute BEST Bushwakers and steemed shrimp come from the FLOR A BAMA Lounge -- built right on the Florida Alabama line....... so many good times at this place ......
Dont look like much from the street........

This would be the view I prefer. View attachment 70885

View from our balcony when we were on Kauai for our 40th. Could have spent all day on that balcony, just chilling and listening to the waves slap the shore. I didn’t. Too many other things to do and see while there….. but I could have.

yes... as well as Faustos market (used to be my customer when I worked for Cocoa Coal on Big Pine key) and many other haunts --

IF your ever in Gulf SHores Al. -- DO NOT MISS the Flor A Bama

FYI -- next to the last "bar fight" I was in................ was at the Flor A Bama ................

the LAST ONE was in a place called JUDGE ROY BEANS in Daphne Al. (Jimmy Buffett used to BARTEND THERE-- yep ) ... man I miss youth

Relatively big change in lifestyle but definitely no complaints about the weather.

There's at least a couple hundred of them on lake Minnetonka here in the west metro. A couple of boat works that restore them as well. It's an area about 15 minutes north of me where people buy 5 million dollar houses on the lake, tear them down and build 20 million dollar houses.

yeah like I said .......... back then it was a musty ol boat we used in the summer to ski and fish and dick about on the lake ....................hell it sank (totally underwater) at least 2 times (bilge quit) that I remember lol

life was a LOT different then. very very much simpler.....I remember standing on the dock with my dad and Grandfather (Adrian) looking at the boat just ..... maybe 8 inches at the windshield submerged.......still TIED to the dock lol .......... good times..... learned some NEW CUSS words that day as well........ lol

Feb. 2011 we had a full bore blizzard in my part of Illinois. The way the wind blew, it packed drifts right against the houses in places….. such as garage doors. Several people I knew and some photos on FB showed holes bored in said drifts for their favorite beverages. Genius
