There's usually a corner for locally made crafts/clothing. Today, however. The open sign is on, yes...but when you open the door and there's a fan cord hanging directly in the doorway and there's plastic on the counters/etc, so I asked for confirmation. The woman behind the counter acted like my question was stupid, but apparently my next one was even more egregious. I asked if I could get any of the teas iced...the most condescending "I can" caused my visit to end short. Will most likely not return at this point, which is a shame as I commend the business bringing something new to Brownsville.

It's been quite awhile since my wife and I have gone out to watch a movie. It was getting too…read moreexpensive so we stopped going. I saw an advertisement that Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu had been released so we decided to go watch this movie at the Ridge Cinema. This review isn't really about the Ridge Cinema in Pea Ridge Florida, as much as it is about movie theaters in general. The theater was clean. Service was good. I didn't really care for the movie, but that certainly wasn't the theaters fault. I watch YouTube videos. I listen to movie actors, directors, writers, etc... talking about the fact that people just don't go out to watch movies any more, that they just don't understand why, and that they wish they knew what to do to get people back to the movie theater. I can tell you a few things that will get people to want to go out and watch a movie in a movie theater. 1. Lower ticket prices, 2. Lower concession prices, 3. Better movies. I paid over $25.00 for two tickets, and I watched a movie that I didn't enjoy. I even paid extra for something that was called "3D".... It wasn't really what I was expecting for a 3D movie. I went to the concession stand and ordered a small popcorn and a large unsweetened iced tea. The cash register showed $7.00. I thought that was a bit pricey for a small bag of popcorn and an iced tea, but what the heck, I'm on a date, let's splurge a little bit.. Evidently, the person had rung up just the small popcorn. When she returned to the register, she rang up the iced tea... $7.00 for an iced tea??? She said "That'll be $14.00". I was a bit taken back, and my response was... "No". And I walked away. That is grotesquely over-priced. Look folks, as long as we agree to paying these prices, theaters are going to continue charging them. I, for one, quit. I'm over the movie theaters. Too bad. I used to enjoy taking my wife out to dinner and a movie. I'll cook at home and watch a streaming movie on my 70" television.

Can't miss this museum with the train outside! I absolutely enjoyed how this museum is laid out!…read more The exhibits are all in one huge room with partitions. The building was built in 1884 for the Pensacola Ice Company. I walked in from the area out back where Julee Cottage is. The main entrance is on Zaragoza St. It felt as natural entering from there as from the front. The restrooms are near the rear entrance. I was a little fascinated by the different types of bricks! In the sawmill, you can push buttons to learn about the machines. In the fishing exhibit, you can see the gear they used as well as what fish they caught. When you open the door to go out to the train, there is a recording with a train whistle... it's pretty cool! There is the T.R. Miller Engine #12 & a Caboose. Unfortunately, you can't get too close-up of a look inside either. But you can see plenty of information about the railroad industry inside. I bought the Unified Admission Ticket which permits admission to all museums in the Historic Trust museum complex for seven (7) days. With my AAA, it cost $9 in Aug. of 2022. For the number of places you can visit, it is a great inexpensive way to learn about Pensacola's history! These museums are closed on Mondays! Come check it out and also the other museums nearby! I visited this museum, Museum of Commerce, the Pensacola Historic Village (Julee Cottage, John Appleyard Storytelling Cottage, the USO house exhibit), Museum of History, and the Museum of Art.

Oh Loblolly, what can I say about you? Well I realize that theater and types of theater settings…read morepeople enjoy can differ greatly from person to person. That being said, I've attended Loblolly performances that I loved and other performances that I really did not enjoy. The one thing I will give Loblolly credit for is sustaining a successful offbeat theater company in Pensacola. They consistently provide something different, which sometimes works out and sometimes it doesn't, but they certainly get an "A" for effort. The theater is one small room, usually with the stage area in the center of the room with seats arranged around it. You will likely either love the intimate feel or you will hate it. I have a friend who used to do a lot of local theater and the set-up makes him very uncomfortable. I, however, much prefer it to larger settings - to each his own I guess. The backstage area, which they sometimes open up after the performances for refreshments and discussion, is simply an adjacent room. We are not talking anything fancy at all here, but somehow it works.

That's really nice considering the entertainment is not just cover bands and washed out old one-hit wonders from the 60's, 70's, and 80's. We saw Twitty and Lynne; Conway's grandson and Loretta's granddaughter. They were surprisingly very similar to their grandparents. The stage was nicely set up and good seating was available. It felt like stepping back in time. Midway rides and games with lots and lots of people crowding the walkways. The exhibit halls were full and there were plenty of food vendors throughout the fairgrounds (albeit there wasn't much in the way of specialty fair foods that you can't get anywhere else...) The only real drawback was that many of the vendors only accept cash and those who do take plastic are charging fees to use a card. I didn't bring enough cash thinking cash might not be accepted, based on the Blue wahoo stadium policy of only accepting credit/debit cards for payments. Totally my own fault. But, if you go be sure to take cash with you.

It's a great event for young and old so bring the whole family and you can bring your puppies too! The location was formerly at Waterway Village but moved to Gulf State Park at Lake Shelby 2 years ago. In my 2020 review I said "I wasn't impressed because the organization seemed lacking, couldn't find many of their signs and, in my opinion, they could do a whole lot better better at their communications, maybe they'll do better next year." They have live music both Saturday and Sunday with lots of booths almost exclusively from local artists. The only downside that the state park venue is alcoholic beverages are not allowed there otherwise it's all a big step up. There were signs and ads everywhere around the area with a nice social media push, 9 food trucks and assorted programs on both days and terrific organization and was very enjoyable. On Saturday we were there for the tribal dancing with the Poarch Creek Indians. They are a federally recognized tribe of Native Americans and are descendants of a segment of the original Creek Nation, which once covered almost all of Alabama and Georgia. It was an excellent demonstration with great history and information. See more at: https://www.facebook.com/PoarchBandofCreekIndians We also enjoyed live music with "Rolling in the Hay and Sunday there was the Crosby Family with bluegrass music and a fiddle and banjo competition.
