Tales from the Road: Can’t Beat a Good Beach Breakfast

(Due to technical difficulties, Tales from the Road was delayed)

Tales from the Road: It’s Great Way to End the Trip: Seafood, Commodores and Commander’s Palace

Due to technical difficulties, Tales from the Road was delayed.
Well, as much as I hate it, all good things must come to an end, even my visit to the beach. There really isn’t a better way to end it than with a bang by attending the 30th Annual Destin (Fla.) Seafood Festival, followed by dinner […]
