I started this blog as a service to the community I call home. I did not grow up here, that is a story for a different time, but moved here permanently in 2003 . I had been coming and going since 1968 when I came to Pensacola Naval Air Station for the first time as a midshipman from the U.S. Naval Academy. Now as an ex-Naval aviator, retired airline pilot turned real estate professional I want all those who live near, work near and love Perdido Key and the surrounding areas to have a forum. I hope this will be the place you come for the local news, recipes, announcements of special events and just opinions from the folks around the "Key". I want the Community Center, the Chamber, local Escambia County Commissioner, businesses, condo associations, parks people, you name it, to chime in when the feeling strikes. I look for lots of response to the posts and will endeavor to encourage the usual suspects and the widest variety of "locals" to put in their 2 cents worth and provide real news and information for all of us.
So here is an open invitation to join in the fun. I will sponsor (read "pay for") the blog and the hosting services so I will be responsible for content. I will chose what is appropriate in my judgment. Posts and other information should be about Perdido Key and the close surrounding area and about what affects our little slice of paradise. I will chose additional bloggers from the folks like I mentioned above and encourage them to post every week at minimum and will filter if necessary for appropriate language, political correctness etc so as not to allow offensive material to appear. I will not be a censor but a filter since I am responsible. Blogs are easy to start if someone wants to offer information or materials I do not want posted on this Blog. Guest Bloggers will have a side bar link so you can come back often and see what is happenin' at the Perdido Bay Community Center for instance or what Gene Valentino has to say about an issue before the Escambia Count Commission just by clicking on his corner of the MyPerdido Blog.
