Eglin AFB is the largest AFB in the United States.  The Eglin Reservation has over 288,000 acres that they use for a bombing range, Special Opps trainning, and Ranger training.  With the BRAC realignment Eglin is getting a new division in from Fort Bragg.  They have just cleared off a few hundred acres to start building the new base. We are planning to have near 12,000 new troops by 2010.  They are also getting the new F-35 at Eglin Field. Crestview is the closest town to the new base and there is very affordable housing and plenty off it.  My office has a new subdivision going in called Freedom Walk designed just for our Military.  Homes are being built  with GREEN Construction and will priced in the $180,000 range.  www.destinrealestateinfo.net

One of the South’s most celebrated festivals. The mullet is a fish that inhabits our local waters.  Mullet are a vegeritian fish, they think they can fly always jumping and they are the only fish that have a gizzard like a chicken.  Local fisherman catch them with cast net’s.  Fresh fried they are delicious.  The seafood festival starts on Oct 17-19. More than 40,000 hungry mullet fans will consume up to 10 tons of this humble fish this weekend.  There will be all types of food including seafood, international, Cajun, good old country cooking and my favorite boiled peanuts.  The festival caters to families with great shopping, hand crafts, youngsters entertainment, clowns, Army Ranger reptile exhibit and Big name entertainment. Headliners this year are Sara Evans, Rodney Atkins, and Jason Aldean.  Over the last few years I have seen Rick Springfield, Dixie Chicks, Billy Rae Cirus, Kenny Rogers, Travis Tritt, Lone Star, and Rascal Flats. Niceville (nice village) is a small town with a big heart.  It is located just 5 miles north of Destin, FL. Home the World’s most beautiful beach’s, Fort Walton Beach, Eglin AFB, Hurburt AFB and Crestview.  Get away this weekend and have some fun www.southernresorts.com Semper Paratus- I am always ready for your referrals
