So as of Yesterday we started getting oil that washed up in the Mobile area and I was talking to some kiters in the Pensacola region and they said as of today there were more signs of it washing up on the beach.

The Oil has officially reached the panhandle of Florida, and it is a horrible day for us that live up here.

I write this not for sorrow but more of a warning to the kiters all along the Gulf of Mexico. I lived in Tampa last year and I would hate for anything to happen to the beaches anywhere in Florida.

Please please please PLEASE!!!! Ban together to help prevent this oil from washing up on your beaches. Join any efforts that are taking place to help. PREPARE FOR THE WORST. The time to act is now while there's still time. Pray for the best and I hope that things will work out for the best.
