Gulf
Shores Al.
We
cut West in order to stop in Gulf Shores. We had never been there
and there is a huge MI contingent that winters there. Nice area...I
was out on a salt marsh and saw something that I had never seen and
wasn't aware of. An Osprey was hunting from high overhead, the way
I've always seen them do, when he dropped down to the waters surface
and flew down the lake at about 3 feet. I've seen eagles hunt this
way but never an Osprey...
Port
St. Joe FL
This
is our favorite place to stay. 10 miles of untouched sugar sand
beach and we park in a small State campground that is tucked in just
behind the barrier dunes.
50
yards from our door to the beach, which looks a lot like home except
the and is white and the dune vegetation is different. And the water
tastes terrible. The weather has been stunning and I had great fun
kayaking on salt water for a change. I'm finding that salt water is a
hoot because there is so much animal life everywhere. Rays,
jellyfish, sharks, porpoise, and all kinds of fish. The jellyfish in
the picture were the size of a large soft ball and they were
numerous. I was surprised at how quickly they can pulsate through the
water. I had trouble getting them to sit still for a portrait .
