Crestview Florida

 We are currently in Crestview, Fl. It's been quite a week and with no Internet service, I'll get us caught up in one swift posting. Swift, because we did cover some miles, but during some yucky weather, so we didn't do much at all.
We left Dallas, headed for Louisiana, we thought about staying in Shreveport, but after driving the really bad roads there, we pushed on about an hour south.  We stayed at a nice little campground in the middle of nowhere I-49 just for the night. The next day it was up and on toward Gulfport MS. Now mind you, we don't have anything against LA. we just wanted to spend some time along the gulf coast. Well, just our luck, our time in Gulfport was spent in a drizzly cold rain, so we spent most of our time inside just hanging out. We stayed at the Navy Seabee Base in Gulfport, the campground was nice, however their WiFi was down. So after a couple of rainy days in MS. we were off and runnin again..........................

 Which landed us here in the FL. Panhandle in the small town of Crestview. We are visiting on of Sheryl's cousin and her husband, they have graciously allowed us to park the RV next to their home and hook us up with water and electric. 


We're having a great visit and last night we went out for dinner. Glenn and Linda have a favorite little seafood place they hit up on Friday nights, so off we went. Wow I forgot what really fresh seafood was like, I had the catch of the day fish dinner and Sheryl opted for a pound of fresh peel and eat steamed shrimp. A great dinner with more than enough to eat for a very reasonable price.
So here we are for a couple of days, soon we'll be off for the FL. east coast and down towards Miami. Ok, were caught up for now, as you can tell it was a pretty uneventful trip into FL, we're hoping the weather holds out for the rest of our journey south. That's it in a nutshell, so we'll leave you with, keep Lovin Your Life as we do ours and until next time....................

It's always nice when those wheels are turning, but it's also nice when you can stop and smell the roses. In your case enjoying a pleasant visit will definitely do just that.
It's about time.

When you hit the road, you really roll!

That was pretty mean to post pictures of all that seafood. I was tempted to lick the computer screen...

Gotta love staying in friend's driveways. Moochdocking at its best!

Always like to hear where the locals go out to eat, especially when it comes to seafood.
