March 8, 2019 Margaritaville Hotel, Pensacola Beach, FL
Taking the Scotch tasting on the road….. Realized last week that it is coming up on almost three years since I have been to Margaritaville Hotel. Decided I needed a visit for inspiration and recalibration. A Buffett refrain has always been a deep thread running through my life – tying my successes and failures together into a blanket. I now wrap myself in that blanket for the next couple of days like the warm security found in youth – escaping the reality on the outside for that one that lies between my ears.
Scotch – like people, comes in many varieties, differing qualities and with their own unique characteristics. I have been helped ,by insightful beings, to accept even the blends and water/ice to enhance my experience with meeting each of these. Much like Scotch, I have found the company of people to be similarly consumed. Some I can appreciate on some level, those that I enjoy thoroughly, and still others, that I come back to repeatedly because I connect with them and they move my soul and spirit. Like Gere’s character in “Pretty Woman” remarking about opera, the toil and effort put into the making of Scotch earns my respect and appreciation. Unfortunately, I have to admit, that I have met some people that I care not to consume their company at all.
