One year ago today our Gulf of Mexico and coast suffered one of the most horrific events in it's history with the explosion of the Gulf Water Deep Horizon oil well, followed by hundreds of days of vast amounts of oil leaking into our waters. Experiencing this as a local resident and business owner, was one of the saddest and scariest times in my life. The every day fear of the unknown and helplessness was overwhelming, to say the least.
All of us along the coast came together as neighbors and pushed through. Although we still feel some aftermath, mostly on our economy, we are hopeful, grateful and thankful today that we have our our gulf coast waters and beaches back.
A big thanks to all of you who supported us and still visited your favorite beaches in the world. We look forward to having you back down again this summer!!!
