husband got out of the service in feb of 70, he couldn't wait to get back to his home so we left the same day he got discharged. been up here so long that this is home now, husband says that hurlbert now has a golf course , did you go on eglin when down there? to be honest, you couldn't pay me enough to move back to ft. walton, when i was growing up eglin parkway was a clay road, later they pave it, then made it four lane, now its six with turning lanes i like defuniak springs, really old town but has nice quiet roads except for spring break( kids on their way to panama city) and summer, again the same, on the way to the beaches

When I was at my grandparents' place in St. Petersburg, I opened the kitchen cupboard and one of those dang palette roaches came flying out at me and got tangled in my hair.

I let out a Yelp... probably swore, but I was 15 then... didn't really have a potty mouth then like I do now

Princess does not swear - I pick up the slack for her. Of course there was the time the postmistress upset her. She actually dropped a double 'F' bomb when she got in the truck. and then .
