We woke up to storms. The waves were huge. We were in the condo most of the day because of the rain. I took a nap when Jett napped. Afterwards, I took the boys to Destin to “putz” around so Wayne could relax and nap. Wayne laughed that it was an expensive nap. We purchased a raft, oars, net and larger shovel. Page, Declan and I agreed we needed all of these things!
In Destin, we went to Target and as we approached the building a homeless man asked if we could spare a coin. I handed him a one dollar bill. Seconds later a woman came toward us and said, “you know he is going to purchase alcohol with that money. I would not help him.” The boys were overwhelmed at how rude the woman was, and a discussion about homeless people ensued.
We were able to put the boat to good use in the afternoon. What a blast! Page loves it as does Declan. People were surfing if that gives you any idea of the waves. We watched the boys closely.
Jett is now the water hose celebrity. Everyone keeps laughing at this little boy who wants to stand by the hose all day.
In the early evening we met Sparky (Warren’s boat captain) at the yacht club in Destin along with his wife, Michelle. They gave us a tour of the boat. It used to be called Black Tip 2. It has been renamed to Titanium 5.0. It is a beautiful boat and the boys enjoyed it. We said goodbye and extended our thanks to them. Hopefully Wayne can see Sparky (Mark McCann) again before we leave.
Afterwards, we went for seafood at a restaurant called Gilligan’s in Destin. The boys loved their fried shrimp and catfish. I had crab cakes that were so-so.
We ended the evening watching a movie with popcorn in bed.
Until tomorrow – hopefully it will quit raining early!
