Gulf Oil Spill

I was asked by a dear friend to give my impressions of how the gulf oil spill has REALLY affected us here in Destin, Florida. To many of you that may not be familiar with Destin, I will explain first that it has not always been such a tourist mecca as is Panama City Beach and Pensacola Beach, but was originally a fishing village with the best deep sea fishing captains in the southeast, in my opinion and that of many others I am sure. There is little left of the original village but the flavor still remains. Our favorite spot to hang out and watch the boats come in Destin Harbor is AJ's which is a Destin favorite for watching the boat traffic and enjoying a cold beverage and listening to some very laid back rock n roll performed by local talent.
