Yep, we're back from our mini trip up the state! I enjoyed it a lot! It may sound boring to some of you who do not get a thrill out of wildflowers growing along roadsides- or searching out sunsets and sunrises... or riding through little towns...
We visited the folks for a few hours -after a ride of more than 5 hours from our house! We had a good BBQ lunch and after being entertained for awhile by this little doll of a 4 year old we all sat on the big back porch and Charles and Odell told us some stories of old! ;) Most I had heard a few times already!
This is Caesar and Odell as we were leaving! BTW-a cool looking boat that guy has!!
Charles and I left an hour or so before sunset! I hoped to get some pretty shots of the sun, setting across the Gulf of Mexico at Apalachicola! We had been there and done that once before!
As it turned out we didn't get great shots of the sunset...
( One of us was not in the right place at the right time...either me- or the SUN!)
but still we had a fun time looking over the little town and walking along the boardwalk!
You might expect we'd have a great seafood dinner in that little seaside town...actually, we had Chinese food! :)
lol- and that's a story best left untold!
Here's a few pics of our time spent there by the gulf!
We got a motel here for the night! A long day and we were both very tired! I slept like a baby -after reading no more than a couple pages of the book I'm currently into...which is- Stephen King's, "Lisey's Story!"~~~
Tomorrow we will catch a great Sunrise!
Love,
Junie
Sounds like you had a fabulous day and I so enjoyed seeing all the pictures! The little girl looks like a real princess, so adorable!! After such a long day it's no wonder you slept so well:-) xox
