As the temperature soared to 104 degrees in Richmond, VA today, I headed south hoping for cooler weather. My destination: Ft Walton Beach, FL. As I checked the weather before leaving it was a bit shocking to discover that FL is cooler than VA! A friend from Sarasota sent me an email saying “it is WAY hotter up there than down here”. I head to Sarasota next week.

I am now sitting in the airport in Charlotte, NC awaiting my 5:50PM flight to Ft. Walton Beach, which is near Pensacola. My travels have no taken me to that part of FL so I look forward to the trip with great anticipation even though my stay will be short. . I will be in the company of lawyers and judges tomorrow as I give the keynote address at the Women’s Luncheon for the Mississippi Bar Association. I am excited about this opportunity. 

It is nice and cool in this quiet airport, unlike many where I wait between flights. My computer and the passing travelers make the time pass quickly. The sights are interesting, a real fashion show. Will report back on my visit.
