perdido key has great visitors!

I ran into the nicest lady this morning.  I was picking up my usual cup of coffee and mentioned to the person at Starbucks that it was so foggy this morning that I could barely see the high-rises along the shoreline as I was coming over the Theo Baars bridge ont he east end of the island.  The lady standing behind me said, "Isn't it great?"  I didn't quite understand and when she saw the look on my face she went on to explain that she was from up north around Wisconsin and this morning it was likely below freezing with a couple feet of snow on the ground.  She said that she loves the snow when it is falling, but would much rather enjoy our gulf coast weather cycles while on vacation in Perdido Key.  Afterwards we were able to visit briefly about how my family goes in search of snow or a thriving metropolis when we go on vacations.  Towards the end of the conversation this chipper snowbird vacationer with a smile on her face said, "Son, you're crazy to want to leave Perdido Key to go on a vacation."  As I crossed the bridge again on my way back to the office I thought to myself that even when it's foggy like this here that it sure beats the chore of shoveling the driveway from back in my childhood.  I am lucky to live here and it's always a wonderful start to my day when someone reminds me just how lucky I am to be in Perdido Key.
