DGD and friends enjoyed a few days on the beautiful beach in Destin ; time to start for home now and back to "regular life" (with a trip to DW in a couple of weeks! ):
One more day for DGD in Texas . School doesn't start until next Monday but she wants to get back in time for Friday nights soccer game. She DOES love her soccer!
A piece of history. The lady on the left (Dorothy Molter) was known as the Root Beer Lady and lived inside of what is now known as Voyageurs NP in Minnesota for 56 years making and selling homemade root beer to paddlers passing through. I got to meet her in 1974 with my school group on our 4 day canoe trip. She was the last living resident in the 218,000 acre wilderness.
This is a beer can table she made. The root beer was sold in bottles which we had to clean and return. The beer cans came from her clean-up efforts along the lakes.
