Update on the oil spill
It’s all over the news, and it’s the subject of lots of conversation. Yes, it’s the nasty oil spill, putting fear into the hearts of anyone who loves this gorgeous Gulf coast I call home. First let me be very clear–THERE IS NO OIL ON THE BEACHES IN DESTIN OR FT. WALTON BEACH. Will it stay that way? I certainly cannot say. Here’s what I’m doing: I’m praying about it. I’m looking at this website for the latest information:

Presently, I believe everyone in this area is doing all they know to keep the oil away from our beaches and to preserve our wildlife. Volunteers have come forward and are on alert to take action as soon as needed.
It is too early to start changing plans to visit this area. The verdict is not in by any means. I’ll keep you informed so check back to see the latest information.
