the peanut butter pie is to die for amd the keylime was standard but very very good. We split the slices but had so much left we have leftovers! Scott had a seafood plate and I got my fried shrimp finally!

St. Augustine Distillery
We went and took the short tour. had several tastes and Scott got himself a bottle of rum and me a bottle of Vodka. We got Mike a bag of bourbon infused coffee too.

On another note : the day after we arrived Scott and I hit walmart and bought 2 cheap folding chairs and an umbrella. He didn't want to rent the ones MADE FOR THE BEACH. I wish I had a picture but the one he got was not meant for the 20 mph gusts and after almost 2 hours it was blown right out of the ground and folded inside out. LOOOL but it was still
Dede
cheaper than a rental; he might break down and get one now. The wind is tough here and blows on the beach quite hard

Sunday Going to meet my brother today. He's in Orlando so we're gonna meet half way and then stop at a beach along the way back.

I'm guessing we're doing lunch, so I'll start with a Florida Mule to accompany my Ahi Tuna App. For my entree I'll have he Grilled Shrimp Platter with Collards and Rice as my sides accompanied by a crisp, cool Pinot Grigio (or two). For dessert the Key Lime Pie.
