What’s goin’ on in Milton?  Who’s in charge?  We’ve got campaign contributors running the Board. Zoning Board votes being ignored.

Votes to approve overdevelopment while infrastructure needs go unaddressed.

I think that renaming the Navarre Beach Causeway after Donald J. Trump is a HORRIBLE idea!

On Nov. 3, President Trump became one of a small handful of one-term presidents in the last century.  He is one of only three to have ever been impeached. 

Finally, we are getting some direction and action from a federal level on fighting the pandemic and economic restoration, after electing a new president and vice president for our country.

My heart goes out to the many business owners hurt by the misdirection and lies we as a country have received from the defeated administration.

The Democrats’ position on COVID-19 will be their undoing

The Democrats have placed themselves is a precarious position. They won the election based on their claim they could handle the coronavirus better than their opponents. Using phrases like “Listen to science.” they persuaded a very slight majority of the people in this country they had a better solution and path to follow. Now they must deliver.

Let the healing begin  

When the board decided to end the work of the TT Wentworth Jr. Foundation four years ago, we believed our efforts had been completed. We left our work on the history of northwest Florida and the contributions made by the Wentworth family in the good hands of the UWF Historic Trust and Pensacola State College. However, sometimes history finds us.  Recent revelations about our founder’s leadership in the KKK now compel us to return to right past wrongs wherever possible. This is where we now find ourselves as the family and former board members of the foundation.    

The Navarre Press asked readers to tell us what they are thankful for this year. Here’s a sampling of our favorites.

‘I am grateful for many things’

That my youngest daughter graduated college (ceremony and all) in December, before the lockdowns.
That despite having to cancel a trip to NYC (with my daughters) and a dream trip to Italy (birthplace of my grandparents), that our family was lucky enough to have gone to Alaska and France the last two years. Great trips.
