What are your best memories

[DD]

Getting in our boat on Choctawhatchee Bay, (which was small for a family of seven), leaving with a small flotilla of other Air Force families, and bouncing through the pass at Destin. Pulling up to "the spit", which is now covered with buildings, but was just a sandbar/barrier island back then. Swimming and fishing all day, then cook-outs on the beach. Heading back before dark and watching the dolphins swimming in the wakes of the boats. Learning how to swim in Choctaw. Bay, and rescuing a beached baby dolphin. Picking up large shards of Weeden Island pottery. Only hearing the sounds of summer nights before the sounds of air conditioners intruded on it all. LIfe was so simple and what a place to be a kid!

I heart this so much.

I saw those too. I soooo wish I could still slip n slide without breaking a hip.
