Amendment

So, in my last blog I wrote how Destin and many of the other beaches around the area are a bubble surrounded by poverty. I then went on to write that adjunct poverty is easily within reach- 2 hours north, 2 hours west. I need to amend the distance. After driving North, away from Destin, the view was much different then I expected. Poverty was much, much closer then I originally suspected. Driving about 20 minutes outside the bubble, one began to encounter impoverished areas, forgotten by time. The South has been a wonderful experience, the people have been extremely friendly and personable. Sadly, something I didn't expect was the dire conditions that many of these people live within.
