southern drifting

take friends.

on the road

add a little elvis (and some antiques)



and some laughter along the way...suddenly cloudy skies, turn to blue and and the world seems so much brighter

 

and you find that seafood and cupcakes seem to be a natural combination.  especially when combined with air stream trailers.



and sunset and moonrise together is the most glorious combination.

  4. yes, we decided friday that we wanted shrimp for lunch saturday. we ate at pompano joe's in destin, drove over to seaside and had cupcakes at queen bee (yes, key lime and then pink vanilla). no taco bar or red bar - we only drove down for the day since the puppies had to be at home.
