Post office was moved from the food truck area not to long ago. The gyro hero food truck here is amazing tasty ! It’s always there. This is pure resort and tourist area.

Is the Truman House also the childhood home of Congressman Matt Gaetz?

[@yoursugardaddyme7164]

I hope it’s safe for tourist. seeing some MAGA people makes me feel worried

[@kassies2832]

That's most places on the emerald coast. I think you're ok. Just because they're MAGA, doesn't make them friendly and welcoming. I live in the Destin area and we love tourists.

[@yoursugardaddyme7164]
