Busted!

 Goodbye, hope to see you soon!  Send letters and money!

  SHEEEEESSSS  BBBBAAACCCKK!

We have dug up one of those clear white storage bins half full. We are off to the beach digging again today.. It is so much fun. Dig about 4 feet deep and you hit something that sounds like rocks.. Keep on digging around and you find so many shells it is not funny.  Like picking Easter Eggs.

If you are going to Panama City Florida and want to stay in a magnificent condo REAL REASONABLE here is the one for you.  Gary found it online and I am so happy he did. Aunt Jan , Gary and I went down last week. Oh we had the best time. The unit was absolutely wonderful. Two great big bedrooms and we each had a bathroom. The furnishings were just perfect and the owners went out of their way to have everything you need there for your use. We hope to go back again . Here are some pictures. I hope you enjoy. Diana’s number is 404-849-2098 . You will not be sorry!

We found a great place to visit and shop.  Shady Oaks located at 3706 W. Highway 98, Panama City , Florida 32401. 850-785-3308

Iris Anderson is the owner. It is open from Tues-Sun 9:00 to 5:00

I found so many goodies here! I wish I had room I would have gotten one of everything. Very unusual gifts.  We loved it even if Iris had her grandmothers quilt laying on the floor for a display!!  We tried to give her a hard time about it but she was such a nice person we just could not.  A gentleman was there also..For the life of me I can not remember his name. Maybe Iris will email me and I will post.  He makes these great birds. I got one! 

When I get home and get my treasures put up I will add more pictures to this post.. As of now they are in the truck!

Here is some of the info on the place. Sits on an acre of land. Once you enter through the old fashioned white picket fence into the beautiful garden setting you truly enter into a time of peaceful days past. The house and small side building which used to be the first Panama City Washateria is full of antiques, unusual gifts and art of local artist.

There is 3/4 acres of pathways with very nice items. Here you will find, statues, fountains, birdbath, CHICKENS and not the statues.. Real ones. The main house I believe she said was from the 1800’s.. Well if I got it wrong I know it was very old and nice. This is just a great place to see and shop.. A must when you visit the beach! 

My own personal Earnest Hemmingway..aka Spanky!

Does anything else need to be said!

 I finally found the lost shaker of salt along with a Margarita, Crab Cakes, and great company..Spanky!  And yes there was a woman to blame..ME!

Nibblin on sponge cake
Watchin the sun bake
All of those tourists covered with oil
Strummin my six-string
On my front porch swing
Smell those shrimp theyre beginnin to boil

Chorus:
Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
But I know its nobodys fault

I dont know the reason
I stayed here all season
Nothin to show but this brand new tattoo
But its a real beauty
A mexican cutie
How it got here I havent a clue

Chorus:
Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searchin for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
Now I think
Hell, it could be my fault

I blew out my flip-flop
Stepped on a pop-top
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
But theres booze in the blender
And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on

Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
But I know its my own damn fault
Yes and some people claim that theres a woman to blame
And I know its my own damn fault
