Good morning, Pensacola!

It’s the last Friday of July, a "Gnarly" day - do something intense, challenging, or impressive. The Gulf is up to the challenge with RIP CURRENTS 🚩 today through early Saturday morning for anyone heading to the beach.

P’COLA roads can also be a bit GNARLY at times. Road construction = progress & improvement! Here’s the when, where and we know the why. FDOT’s current projects can been found at NWFL ROADS.

ORANGE means STOP. Brown means GO.

This is DISCOVER ☀️ P’COLA.  Be in the know for where to go, local news, events, and things to do. Let’s get to it!

Cheers!

ALL about Ricky Bobby

Breed: Lab mix Age: 9 weeks Specialty: Speed, sass, and snuggles Start your engines. Ricky Bobby is here to win your heart! He may not be a big hairy American race car driver, but he is a little hairy cuddle machine with a whole lot of personality. Ricky Bobby’s start in life was a little bumpy—found nearly abandoned as a tiny pup— a kind family rescued him and got him to safety. Now he’s tuned up, full throttle, and zooming through life with joy and curiosity.

This pup’s dream crew includes: Another playful dog (he lives for backyard zoomies and tag-team mischief), A home that appreciates pit stops on cool floors and puppy pool launch tricks, Patient humans who won’t mind a few potty training accidents while he learns the track, A snack-sharing lifestyle—he's never met a treat he didn't love.

He sleeps through the night like a champ, uses the dog door like a pro-in-training, and thrives with structure and companionship. So, if you're looking for a loyal co-pilot with turbo-charged charm, Ricky Bobby is ready to race home with you. Apply now—because “If you ain’t first, you’re last.”

If you have a home and the heart 💙 to adopt, and can give RICKY BOBBY🐾 the love and care he deserves, please contact ROSALIE & FRIENDS🐾. Looking for a smaller, fatter, older, taller, furrier, pup?
