Hitting the Beach

Well the Tick got to do the beach yesterday and carried about a ton of sand back to the coach with her. It was a little windy but otherwise nice and sunny. After last year's sunburn, none of us are out without being dipped in sun screen, so that serves as a medium to cause the sand to cling to you. Pretty nasty.

We have rented a boat for today, so we are off to Orange Beach to pick it up. The folks in the RV next to us have kids Abbie's age, so she has run hard with them and we are going to take them for a boat ride today as well.

The evenings have been just cool enough to break out the "Campfire in a Can" so we have burned thru a tank of gas using that.

Endless Rain



A brief break from the rain yesterday afternoon led to mostly overnight showers and rain most of today. We moved from Bella Terra to Perdido Cove and got soaking wet doing it, so we are in the dry out mode.

Nice RV spot right on the Intercoastal Waterway, so this should be nice once the sun comes out.

Spring Break 2009

Well since this seems to be the blog we use for Spring Break, maybe we will fire up a few posts and see if anyone is tuned in.

We made it from Houston to Slidell, LA last night after a nasty run in the rain. Slidell was on the other side of the front and it was 72 there while it was 44 when we left Houston. After a night at the TA truck stop, we made it to Bella Terra RV Resort in Gulf Shores, AL.

Now the rain has caught up with us and the temp is dropping but not before we hit the heated pool and hot tub.
