Beaches and perfect weather (at least so far) what more could anyone ask for in a recent move. Mark and I moved to Pensacola, Florida on October 26 after a mini vacation to Birmingham, Alabama. We spent about 12 days in two different hotels. The first ten days we were at the Holiday Inn. We enjoyed the free breakfasts and fitness gym. We couldn’t get a hotel on base because all the rooms were booked for the Blue Angels’ performance. After the shows were over we got a room at the Navy Gateway. It was just in time too because we could only have up to 10 days in a hotel without having to pay for it. We needed the extra couple of days to wait for our home to be ready for moving in. We had looked around off base for a decently close apartment, but couldn’t find something that was good for our situation. Luckily the base had a town home. We decided we wanted to live on base and it has been a good decision ever since. Mark doesn’t have to get up too early to go to muster and I can get up and go with him to work out at the gym or run on the trails. We go shopping at the commissary, but we just found a grocery store called Publix that is pretty good. Pensacola has some good qualities and some that aren’t so good, but I find all places are about the same. I enjoy living life and I don’t mind living in a small place or major city. Pensacola is in the category of a small place and we’ll see how things go during this part of my adventure.
