Saturday, Great Day

What a great day this has been!  Started a bit on the cool side...28, so I loaded down with about 3 or 4 layers of clothing, 2 pairs of socks, heavy winter coat of Tim's, gloves and a toboggan.  All of this just to walk a few laps around the park.  Actually amost 3 miles.  Walked with a fellow neighbor so time went fast.  Truly enjoyed the smack in your face chill breeze.  Fixed Tim a biggy breakfast, did a bit of cleaning, laundry, showered, by then lunchtime, after that we headed out for some shopping, then off to Gulf Shores and the beach.  Was lucky and found everything on my list.  At Gulf Shores we checked out a couple campgrounds...Perdido Cove RV Resort in Perdido Key and Gulf Shores State Park.  Tim is always interested in new places to stay.  He loves the Gulf Shores area.  It was almost dinner time so the question was, where to go.  After many options LuLu's was the winner.  We have been there before.  It is on the Intracoastal Waterway, dolphins are regular visitors, and if one is lucky, a fantastic show will entertain you during dinner. Unfortunely luck was not on my side. At least in reference to the dolphin sighting, But...omg did I have a magnificant meal.  The topper was fried green tomatoes.  Delish!!!  Even better than that, we had the best server, Saint was his name, this side of paradise.  Again, what a super great day this was!!!

Will share a few pics of the day.  Will continue the photos of Wednesday night's Bellingraph Gardens Christmas Lights Displays tomorrow.
