Time to go Home

The worst part of spending two months in Gulf Shores, AL is that at the end of March I have to head back home so I can get the taxes done. Although we had cooler than normal weather once again this year, I still love coming to Gulf Shores.

Gulf Shores is one of our favorite stops as well. We stay at the state park and enjoy the views like in your picture.

Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores is the best RV campground for visiting the area. Even with almost 500 sites it does fill quickly.

We’ve been coming down here to Gulf Shores since 2006 and finally this year we made it up to Alligator Alley in Summerdale, AL. For anyone visiting the Gulf Shores area it’s a short drive (20 miles) to Alligator Alley and well worth the $10 pp entrance fee. A few pics of Alligator Alley.

I suffered a dog bite last fall and since then I've been looking for more friendly animals to be around.

Our next door neighbors from NJ had the same conundrum, so they had the accountant FedEx all their stuff down here (Jacksonville) and stayed another month.....just sayin'

Do you still have ears after holding the gator? Sorry we did not make it down this year, to much going on, hopefully this will be the last winter we spend in the north. Have a safe trip home.
