As long as we've been on the road, we're still occasionally finding places that we think "I could stay much longer in this place." The Florida Panhandle is one of those places. I thought I'd show you a few of the houses here on the gulf coast, in case you…

This afternoon we went for a nice hike up in the wilderness area of St. Joseph Peninsula State Park. (You do need a permit to get into this area, but they just give 'em out at the park office free.) We parked and took the path over to the bay…

We took our lunch break today and drove down to Apalachicola for some more local oysters. (You'll also learn, if you click that link, that the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue was shot in Apalachicola.) Anyway, we went to Boss Oyster for our lunch and sat out on the deck…

I don't really have any more photos to post besides this view from our office this morning. It's still a little stormy, but not dumping rain or throwing lightning around the sky like yesterday. We went to Commander's Palace over in the Garden District for dinner last night. It was…

Tonight we got an early reservation at August over on Tchoupitoulas Street. We did the degustation menu with wine pairings and it was fabulous. Really. Right up there with our other favorites. After dinner we walked down Canal Street over to Bourbon Street and figured we'd get a bit of…

This morning (on a tip from our friend Steve) we headed over to Mother's for breakfast. We decided we'd do breakfast, skip lunch (oh, maybe a beignet or something), and then go to dinner. Pacing is important here. We know Steve is as much about the experience of a place…
