Gulf Shores

Gulf State Park allows you to wash your RV if you use bio-degradable soup.  I use Simply Green to wash the unit and that was fine with them.  Gerry and I hadn't washed the unit since last fall and it needed it badly with the dust and grime from the road, along with dust from Arizona.   I used the long handled brush to get the grime off and Gerry rinsed it.  I took a break and she worked on the front of the MH and got all the bugs off.  It really cleaned up nice and looks like a new RV now.

We decided to eat out another time and take advantage of the great seafood in the area.  Gerry had noticed Wintzell's Oyster Bar and wanted to try it out.  We got there early and were able to get a table on the patio area over a small pond.  There was a nice breeze and it had cooled down so it was very pleasant out there.  We had great service from the waiter and were served very quickly.  The patio filled up while we were there and some people were feeding the fish and turtles.



Gerry ordered a stuffed crab dinner and a glass of wine.  She was pleased with her meal, but said they could have taken out some of the filling and added more crab.  It must have been ok, since she ate all of it.


They had some neat sayings throughout the restaurant and a group of them on a big board over the bar on the patio.  I don't know if you can read them or not, but I've included a photo of them below.


We will be pulling out of here on Wednesday morning and heading for the Tampa, FL area for a few days.  We may have time to stop in Orlando and visit with a cousin of mine and his family.  It's a little out of the way, but we haven't been in that area for a long time and wanted to visit there once again.  Who knows, maybe one of these winters we will head down to Florida again.

Big tv night for Gerry with both NCIS programs having their final episode of the season.  As usual, it looks like a cast member will be killed off in each program.  It seems once a program does this, then everyone follows along and does the same thing.  Aren't there any people out there who can write an original script and present it?
