To say that the media is knee-jerk and irresponsible is to make the understatement of the millennium. To say that the American people are gullible to their knee-jerk is to speak a sad truth. On no other subject is this more relevant than the matter of sexual harassment claims.
Trump was not my first choice for president; however, he is our best choice. Finally, we have a president who does what was promised during the campaign. Typically the election is won by someone who tells you what you want to hear then when elected does what the establishment directs.

Thanksgiving has come and gone and now we can all move on from listening to what everyone is thankful for and switch gears to hearing what everyone wants for Christmas.
A timeline of historical milestones in Navarre as provided by the Navarre Beach Area Chamber of Commerce can be found in this issue thanks to the scrapbooks of Shirley Brown. If you have read Navarre Press for any amount of time, or have lived in Navarre for the past 10 years or more – you know of the tireless efforts of Charlie and Shirley Brown as they were part of the glue that pulled this community together. And, you will see signs on the side of Hwy. 98 aptly dedicating a portion of the highway in memory of their service to our community. Of note, is that the Navarre Beach Area Chamber broke ground on the Navarre Community Center – the same community center that was later sold to the Navarre Beach Area Board of Realtors. The money for that sale was to be set aside for a new community center, but, I believe it was earmarked to go toward our multimillion-dollar park renovation where the chamber currently is located within the county building.
I have lived around and with wild animals all my life. I did problem animal control for several years for Parker County in Texas. Coyotes, feral dogs, beavers and the like on large ranches. Humans are the problem and we are not going away. The animals do what they do and they do not know how to be politically correct. Hence I see them as victims.
Wednesday, before Thanksgiving, a home on Tupelo Street burned. It was fully involved when the Holley Navarre Fire District and other agencies arrived – and what they discovered was not unusual for them. There was no fire hydrant on the street. Instead of hooking up to a hydrant to fight the fire, they had to rely on tanker trucks to provide the water.
Confetti littered the track below the visiting side of the stadium. The scoreboard still burned bright, the numbers 52-21 as clear as day, numbers that favored St. Augustine in its convincing win over Navarre on the East Coast of Florida Friday evening.
