Jan 30 - Three weeks and the trip continues to grow in enjoyment and experiences!  The weather in Fort Walton Beach has been outstanding.  One day with a line of pretty severe thunderstorms and a tornado warning, but other than that - its been sunny day after sunny day.

The week started with another thought provoking sermon and wonderful music at the Fort Walton UMC.  Sunday ended with an outstanding choir concert - eight local churches who have been singing together for almost 30 years for a  'Great Night of Methodist Singing'.  They listened to 150 voices and a 25 piece orchestra in  an amazing service that exemplifies how the Wesleyan tradition is alive and well in our lives today.  They were truly blessed to have heard the voices sing praise.

 Monday began with our normal walk around the campground.  I sure wish there were other dogs for me to have fun with - I keep running into these 2 very large chocolate labs who are not friendly!  After breakfast, Mom and Jay took off for yet another day of  golf (there was NO trip to the beach for fishing and NO trip to the golf course for me!  DARN!)

And the stories of yet another wonderful (?) day on the links continue.  They played a course at Eglin Airforce Base that is known one of the top ten military courses in the US. The course layout (live oaks decorated with Spanish moss) and interesting greens made for a challenging afternoon. The game couldn't have been too bad tho -  with the handicap figured in, Mom managed to tie Jay for the game.  She seemed pretty pumped about that!!!

The evening meal of oyster stew was a fine end to an otherwise perfect day (I even got a small spoonful of the stew!  Delish!)
