Shaun Abbott leans against the railing of the Navarre Beach fishing pier, his pole leaned up against the side of it with a colorful lure dangling from the end of the line high above the sparkling green water of the Gulf of Mexico.

Spring has sprung and so have all of the spring colds and stomach bugs. Almost everywhere I visited this past week was shorthanded due to illnesses. We were not the exception. However, we pulled through and put together another stellar issue of Navarre Press. I’m looking forward to reading it at the same time you do. I do get a sneak peek, but I don’t know everything that is in the paper nor have I read every word before it comes out. I have very talented team members that take care of that for you. On Tuesday evenings if I’m not overly inspired for a topic for my column I grab the proofs of the paper and start looking through them for inspiration.
Growth is a great thing. When our children are growing we measure off every inch marking the same door frame over and over so we can see how tall they are getting. We make plans for the next inch by buying the next size up in clothes and shoes. We replace the crib with a toddler bed and then a real bed. We plan for their growth and know there will be changes coming. We even put money into a savings account to prepare for their future.
