Day 31 Super Bowl

Jolene and Cal arrived on Thursday and after picking them up at the Pensacola airport we began to make the rounds. Over the next four days we spent a significant amount of time at the Red Bar and Shorty's, plus one time visits to the Hurricane Oyster Bar, Hightide, Stinky's, Gravel Road, Rum Runners, Great Southern Cafe, Sally's Backside, Beach House Bar and Grill (Geezer Bar), and probably several others that I don't remember. We ate and drank a considerable amount including; oysters, Gumbo, Ceviche, Grits, Biscuits and Gravy, etc. They also got to see Donnie Sundal, Dread Clampitt, Redd the singing bartender, the Red Bar Jazz Band, and Howlin' Jack. We had a grand time but they were a little upset about leaving since they would be heading back to that 25 inch snow with 10 to 20 more on the way. Cal was whimpering on his way out the door and muttering something about not leaving until May. And, oh by-the-way, we did see the Super Bowl and the people down here are extremely pleased, to say the least.
