Welcome to Destin! Home of this year's FVRMA Convention and, at this moment, the remnants of tropical storm Claudette. The drive from Columbus Georgia to Destin yesterday was very easy. Beautiful rural scenery through southern Alabama and into northern Florida. Rolling hills and farms. Very nice drive! As soon as we entered Florida we stopped at the Welcome Center to look around. There were a million brochures for vacation rentals, hotels, activities and events - all very well organized by the various regions of the State. On the way to Destin we stopped at Seaside - a planned community on the Gulf often cited as an example of successful implementation of New Urbanism. Time magazine called it "the most astounding design achievement of its era and, one might hope, the most influential" while others call it a manufactured fantasy. Many scenes of the 1998 film The Truman Show were shot at Seaside. Good movie! Today we have some client meetings and are setting up the Bookt Booth at the convention. We check-in to our Sandestin Resort vacation rental @ around noon. Yes - the tropical storm that passed through was exciting but FVRMA will be even more so. More so to come in the morning! Have a great day!!
