Hunkered down for the winter in Gulf Shores, AL

We arrived in Gulf Shores this afternoon, we stopped in Biloxi at Newk's for lunch because today was mushroom soup day.  Good soup.  We are in a corner site, as you can see, this year.  Lots of sun and mid 80s today.  OK, are now set and ready for winter, bring it on!

Florence, MS

It was only 234 miles today and Mike & I took turns leading the way but it seemed like a very long day.  After setting up and checking out this CG we agreed we should have made our usual stop at Ameristar Casino in Vicksburg, that would have been nicer and cheaper.  AND Judy would have been able to play the slot machines, the advantage to this place is it equals out the distance we travel each day.  All we did this afternoon was cool down, 84 degrees and sunny, then get diesel for $4.47 a gallon.  That's Mike & Debra's HitchHiker beside us.  We are back in the land of cotton, saw lots of it today.

Off to Gulf Shores, 1st travel day

We were up at 7:30 and leisurely packed up.  We spent time saying good bye to our friends, new and old.  Some we have no idea when we'll see next, others we'll be with in Gulf Shores this winter and some next April in the Texas hill country.  We were going to spend the night in Little Rock but discovered the discount Passport America park on the river downtown was full.  Plan B has taken us to Pine Bluff, Arkansas and a nice city park we stayed in back in 2007.  We are 266 miles closer today to our winter home.  We left Tahlequah a few minutes before Mike & Debra but they beat us here, we had a longer lunch/rest stop obviously.  We started out in some serious Oklahoma hills but are now in the flatlands of Arkansas.
