Just got back from a great weekend on St. George Island, FL.  Spat Fest is a new festival, but the folks on St. George did a great job and their hospitality was fantastic!  It's nice to make new friends from far away places.  Larry, Sharon, Terry, Charlotte, Joe and of course, Rick Plessinger from Oyster Radio, THANKS for a great festival!

This week it's time for Shrimp Festival here in Gulf Shores, AL and the weather is going to be perfect!  I remember the days when the Shrimp Festival was a little hit & miss, but these days, it is really done well.  When you consider it's done by an all vounteer group, it's amazing.  It doesn't just happen on its own.  These people love the island and give tons of time and energy putting on this premier event.  My hat's off to all of them.
