Yep. It's spring break. If you finish your session Sunday afternoon, we will be at the Whale's Tail after 3pm. I will PM our phone. Have a great time. BTW, JB was just here in the parking lot doing a YOLO demo in a shallow pool. His pic is on FB.BeachBumJim wrote:I'll be there through Sunday afternoon. I'll be in Sandestin at Watercolor doing some paddle stuff on Saturday and Sunday...not sure what I'll be doing after thiose sessions. Sounds like it could be a plan!catsway wrote:Jim, How long are you going to be in Destin? We'll be back home in Destin Saturday afternoon. If your still in town Sunday, please PM us. We will be on the beach at the Whale's Tail Sunday afternoon, unless Kansas wins Saturday night. Then we are off to NOLA. Have fun. Stop by Pompano Joes and say hello to Big Ed, the bartender. Tell him Wayne sent you.BeachBumJim wrote:Happy Buffett Day all...wish I could be there this year...I'll honk as I pass the tailgate lot on my way to the beaches up by Destin and Ft. Walton for the weekend to do some paddleboard stuff.![]()
Do you know how hard it was to find a hotel anywhere NEAR Destin????I ended up booking in Panama City Beach for tonight and tomorrow.

I didn't die, either! I just look like I've been beaten.
I knew this girl made of memories and phrases, who lived her whole life in both chapters and stages.
Danced 'til the dawn, wished all her worries away.
She's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom gown.

Anyone driving I-75 this weekend, especially northbound, be prepared for extra heavy traffic. Everyone is headed in and out of Florida! Spring Break and Easter Week. Our 6.5 hour drive turned into 9 hours.
Thank you again Central Florida! What a Thursday and Friday to remember!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

Just got back from seeing Will Hoge in St. Pete. With everything that's happened since Thursday, I'm suddenly hurting in places I didn't know could hurt. Advil and sleep are calling my name.

Re: Who's going to Tampa 3/30/12?
Hey y'all!
I had a blast seeing old friends and meeting some new ones.
This was the best overall Buffett show experience I've had in years, even rivals my first ever show in West Palm back in 99.
The whole weekend just had that "magical" feeling to it, not overstating that either.
Thanks y'all!

Good times. A huge thanks to everyone that helped pull off the party (ray, jackie, shelly, tom, andy, james, wayne), y'all rock. Just as much thanks to everyone who helped chip in towards the expenses involved and those who were able to just spend the day together.
See you next time!
