First let us say “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” to our daughter-in-law, Jenny back in Tennessee.  Jenny, we got your birthday package off today, a little late…

With our tour guide, Robert, we learned a bit about Destin’s history at the History & Fishing Museum.  We toured Destin’s first post office and visited the Duey Destin Fish Market, a restaurant run by descendants of the original family.

    

        

We visited Eden Gardens, a beautiful southern mansion of early settlers that ran a lumber mill and turpentine factory, important to Destin’s early economy (before fishing became so popular).  The grounds included acres of beautiful old trees, gardens, sculptures and fountains that overlooked Choctawhatchee Bay.

        

We ended our evening with a gorgeous sunset overlooking the bay and docktails at the boat with good friends…..
