Meeting fellow bloggers








The last couple of days have been busy and fun. Yesterday, we got together with fellow bloggers Paul and Marti. Paul also happens to be a fellow Coastie , so in addition to the RV conversation, we covered a bit of Coast Guard stuff. We enjoyed a hearty lunch at McGuire’s Irish Pub in Pensacola. It was great to meet another full time couple.

After lunch we headed to our favorite local fish market, Capt. Joe Patti’s. They have their own fleet and the Gulf caught fish is always right off the boat. They also have guaranteed fresh fish from other parts of the world, as well. In you are in Pensacola, it is a great place to get your catch of the day.

In the evening, we had the final campground party of the season. Not that all the snowbirds are leaving yet, but soon the spring breakers will start arriving.

Since Paul is much faster than me at getting a blog post out last night, Paul and Mary saw it and sent us an email to join them for lunch today, when they planned a lunch with Paul and Marti. Needless to say that was too good an offer to pass up. So today we headed back to Pensacola and enjoyed another great lunch and conversation that quickly consumed several fun hours. It was really an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.

You're right! The R Sanity duo got it out yesterday. We met up with them in "Q". Or, was it that they met up with us?? They're a great couple but please don't tell them that. Either way it certainly is fun to meet folks we already know so much about!!

It is amazing what a community blogger are. When I try to explain that to nonRV friends they just can't understand why I would want to meet somebody who writes a blog online and yet it is one of my favorite things to do. So glad you got to meet another blogger buddy!

Next time we are in Pensacola we'll have to check out Capt Joe's. We really like those kind of places. We are in Mayport, FL now and love the fresh fish here.

Were you buying that lobster? Yum! It must have been a lively and enjoyable time at both dinners. :)
