This morning Judy went to the church service held in the RV parks activity center. This afternoon we went to Fort Morgan, about 25 miles west of us on the east side of Mobile Bay. On the way there we passed many many colorful homes/cottages built on stilts on the gulf. I bet a third were for sale. It didn't look like a place I'd like to live or vacation. Flat, white sand, no grass, dead trees and low scrub brush. The fort was built starting in 1819 to protect Mobile Bay. It has been controlled by seven governments and flies seven flags. It played a significant part in the Battle of Mobile Bay (1864) at the end of the Civil War. It was reactivated during the Spanish-American War, WWI and WWII. We could see six oil platforms from the fort but not across the bay to Mobile due to the haze. It was another warm day in the 70s but was overcast for the most part. We had stuffed chicken, Waldorf salad and asparagus for supper and played euchre tonight at the activity center, there were ten tables as more folks are arriving. Neither of us had a good night at the tables.
