Friday, December 2 - Lynn Hardin Visits

What a wonderful day!  My high school friend, Lynn Hardin Thompson, drove down from Tallahassee to see us.  We had hoped to meet her for Thanksgiving, but windy weather and boat repairs held us up.

Lynn's sister-in-law has a house in Mexico Beach, so we headed there to drop off her stuff and see the town.  On the way, we stopped for breakfast.  (What a surprise!)  There are no chain restaurants in Mexico Beach, at least I didn't see any, so we ate at a local restaurant.  I tried Country Fried Steak and Eggs which was surprisingly good.  Next we toured the Beach House.  When it was built, there were two houses between it and the shoreline, now it's on the beach!

As usual when we have visitors, we take advantage of their car!  Lynn was kind enough to take us several places as we searched for a small Christmas tree for the boat and Danny's favorite beer.  She also introduced us to Bluewater Outriggers, an incredible store.  The salesman there convinced Danny that he needed a new fishing lure. Look at the size of that thing!  It should attract some whoppers.


No tree at Dollar General or CVS, so we headed "downtown" where there are a lot of interesting stores.  And one antique mall had the perfect tree!

Next on the tour was Cape San Blas and Indian Pass.  Beautiful drive, and great oysters at Indian Pass Trading Post.


It We enjoyed the visit with Lynn so much!  It's always a delight to spend time with her.
