Sweet Home Alabama

Happy New Year!!

Another quiet, relaxing week on the Mississippi Gulf coast. We did manage to get in another round of golf, opted not to ¨donate¨ any more money to the local casinos and took the dogs for walks on the beach. We also tried a new game offered at the RV park - Disk Golf. As you can see our form is not bad, but Jim`s must be better as he kicked my butt! You get three different weighted frisbee-like disks and you have to count the number of times it takes you to get the disk in the ¨hole¨. The course has par 3s, 4s and 5s, out of bounds areas and dog legs to manoeuvre. This week it even offered sand and water hazards - more commonly known as mud as you can see from my feet!


























The RV owners hosted a New Year`s Eve get together, and a luncheon the following day. They do a great job of making everyone feel welcome. For our RV buddies, the Bay Hide Away in Bay St Louis is a great place to stay when in this area. They`re not even that far from New Orleans. Let Chef Jeaux (pronounced Joe) and Michelle look after you when you travel the Coast.

But it was time to move on so Saturday we packed our bags and headed further east on the I-10 to Styx River RV Resort, located about halfway between Mobile, Al and Pensacola, Fl. And guess what I found

You got it - after five months and one week I finally got to soak in a hot tub again. I may never leave!


See ya next week!

Happy New Year! OOOWEEE... wonderful hot tub. Looks like you enjoyed that!!

Since I'm not good at golf, maybe I'll be better at Disc Golf. It looks like it could be fun!!

Happy travels to Florida,

Pat.
