2012-12-24 thru 2013-02-28 Foley-Gulf Shores Alabama Part 1

Way late getting these pictures up
Better late I guess ... At least I will have a memory aid


 Christmas in Anchors Away RV Resort 2012
 It didn't rain ALL the time
We definitely saw habitat that we had never seen before

Including the Mardi Gras Museum in Mobile AL
I always thought New Orleans was the birthplace of Mardi Gras
but it actually is Mobile.  They have kept theirs family oriented and so you
don't hear anything about it in the news










All the surrounding towns have their own Mardi Gras parade
Here are some pics from the Foley parade

 On the right of this pic is Charley Nelson
An awesome guy we met at karaoke one night
Charley and Rene invited us to sit at their table and we developed a deep friendship
with them and Bud  & Diana Parker
& Joe Frank Dunkin (Diana's Brother)
More pics on that later !!





 These were the participants in the parade from our RV Park
Anchors Away
 Susy Rene & Charley





I have always loved aviation and the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola Florida
did not let me down
We visited the first day with Ron Brown and Lois Osterhouse 
Mike and Sharon
The next visit was just the boyz !!





 The helicopter used by several Presidents for passage to and from the White House
Ron stated infatically "I am not a Crook"









 Mike got this awesome shot inside a jet simulator












 Just like the A bombs dropped in Japan















 Man .. thats some powerful Super Glue


























































We look pretty happy for as tired as we were
