The Weather is Usually Pretty Good

Locals will always tell you if you don’t like the weather in Florida just wait five minutes. And it’s true…the weather changes that quickly sometimes. You can go from storming to sunny to liquid sunshine (it actually rains while the sun is out here)…yeah. So here’s the labor day forecast.

And…since i waited till the last minute to write this, that’s all folks.

Can’t make it? Don’t worry, our sand will still be white after labor day…and that’s okay.
