Goodwin Gals Gone Panama

After a wonderful weekend to include our "Goodwin Reunion", excitement began to stir as us gals were awaiting our trips to Alabama and then on to PCB in Florida.

Mom and I left B'ville on Tuesday morning (4/24) where she would visit with me and my family for 2 days. My sister and niece were leaving the following Thursday morning (4/26) and driving to my home where mom and I would "catch a ride" to the beach.

We had packed snacks/drinks, beach chairs/umbrella, clothes/shoes, cards/books...you name it and one of us Tammy probably had it. Lunches were sandwiches of homemade pimento cheese, Dobbs turkey salad, or Black Forest Ham slices, and dinners were at The Back Porch and Carrabba's.

Our condo was just the right "fit" for us with awesome ocean views, beautiful, sunny days and amazing sunsets. Tammy and I sat Friday and Saturday nights on the balcony way-y-y-y-y into the early morning.....just catching up.

There were mornings on the beach, afternoons on the balcony or spent shopping, and evenings chillin' at the condo after dinner.

Our time spent at PCB was so much fun. We had a great time being together. Plans are already in the air for our next trip...can't wait.
