Updates.... first day pics.

View from our "porch".
Image

Pensacola Beach water tower, outside our door.
Image

Son, peeking out the door at me.
Image

Wife and son at our favorite eating spot, Peg Leg Pete's.
Image
Image

My son, with Peg Leg Pete.
Image

The beach, and why I love this place.
Image

Local wild fowl...
Image

Access to the beach, right from the road...
Image

Cross on the hill. Apparently this place was settled by Spanich Missionaries in the early 1500's prior to St. Augustine, FL but abanded after a hurricane.
Image

Our car... actually my wife's car - which is what made the 15 hour trip down.
Image

Cool random shot...
Image

My soon to be home down here. Actually, I Wish, but the owner is the brother of a guy who attends my church, and is a friend of the family's. It is rentable. And hurricane proof.
Image

THIS is actually my home here. Naw, once again, I'm playin...
Image

Here is my favorite house I have seen thus far here. I love it.
Image

Live band playing on the boardwalk.
Image

And one more shot of wild fowl and some ocean views.
Image


There will be more posted of the rest of the week later. Also, since Tropical Storm Edouard is just south of Louisiana it has sent some massive waves here and the water is choppy and has major rip tide warnings. There are also a ton of freaking Jellyfish around. I have yet to get any pics of it, but either way, the swimming is not the greatest right now :( We still have all week long though. The weather is great, sunny, hot, and typical rain of Florida. :D

Thanks for looking!

Great pictures. Looks like a lot of fun with the family. I hope it's relaxing as well. Nothing like a good re-charging for your soul. Enjoy what's left and get home safe. :thumbup:

edit: Hey, Andrew, where are the pictures of you? After all this site is about the Neon owners....... :lol:

Funny you ask. :lol: I have only gotten one shot of me and my wife so far. I am in charge of the camera since it is brand new and a D-SLR... she is not as good at it as me :lol: :D

Fort Myers Beach/Sanibel > P-Cola

There isn't anybody down here that's going to tell you you have a "purty mouf" unlike the freakos in the panhandle.

Yep, I rarely if ever go to the beach. Too many people and too hot. I live like a block and a half away too.
