September 22, 2009 - A little catching up to do. We left
Gulf Shores on the 8th and stopped for three nights at the
Silver Slipper RV Park in Waveland, MS. Supposed to be
"right on the beach" but in reality there was a road
between the park and the beach with constant traffic to and from
the casino. Very high priced at $41 per night. We left there on
Friday and stayed overnight in Kinder, LA at the Coushatta
Casino RV Park, a better experience once we got a site that the
power worked. We stayed overnight at Gateway to the Gulf RV Park
in Victoria, TX on that Saturday and headed into Mission on
Sunday. Spent the first couple days getting "stuff"
moved from the motorhome to the casita and the Everest. The
Everest had been in storage for over two years and we had it
moved here to our lot in April. Amazingly, everything (except
the battery) worked and we were able to move in once I got the
trailer moved back a bit. Some people can't follow instructions,
the transporter was given "exact" instructions on
where to park the Everest on our lot, he decided to put it where
HE wanted and I couldn't get one of the slides out. It took a
couple days but I found someone in the park that still had their
hitch in the bed and he moved it back for me. Now we're just
settling in for the winter. Today we're getting rain so the mosquitoes
will be rough for awhile again. They had just about died off
after the last rains. At least the temps have fallen back to
"reasonable" levels.

September 6, 2009 - Wow, this park turned into a zoo on
Labor Day weekend. 5 year olds outnumber adults by 5 to 1. I've
never seen so many big wheels, training wheels and toys in my
life. Come on Tuesday!!

September 4, 2009 - We've been hanging out in Gulf
Shores, AL for almost 4 weeks now. The weather has been pretty
warm and the humidity high. The seafood here has been
incredible. Doc's Seafood Shack has some of the best we've ever
had. Their seafood gumbo ranks #1 as the best I've ever had.
But, we're ready to leave and get back on
the road. The park here is excellent and we will definitely
return. We'll be leaving on Tuesday after Labor Day and heading
to Waveland, MS. There's a new casino built right on the gulf
with an RV Park. The front sites look out over the Gulf. Should
be a nice place to stay for a few days. Then we'll be heading
west toward Texas. Below is a picture of our site here at Gulf
Breeze.
