What an enjoyable trip the 5 of us (Jane, Shana, Caroline, Debbie C and Cathy) had in Destin, Florida for a week! A lot of fun was had by all, including lots and lots of card playing!
Day 1

This was our attempt at catching the eclipse, but it was too cloudy to see the progression.
Day 3
Rain, rain go away...but it wouldn't!! It rained all day and very hard at times. So we played a lot of cards and when it slacked up a bit we ventured out for a drive around the SanDestin resort, then over to the outlet mall for some shopping, then to Margaritaville for a late lunch and then back to the condo for more cards.

Day 4
The sun came out and everybody did too! Cathy heading out for some boogy boarding.
The waves were great for boarding.
Catching some rays!

Day 6
The weather is changing again -- getting cloudy and cooler. Not much time spent on the beach today. One of our many card games that were played at this table!!
Day 7
For our last full day in Destin we headed down to the Harbor. The fishing rodeo was in full swing as you can see here.

Day 8
On our way home we stopped off at Coushatta for the night and to do a little gambling.
This was another great trip with many fond memories.
Till next time...
