We finally left Florida after almost 5 weeks of driving along all the coasts from east to west! We had great weather and a wonderful Christmas there but we want to see Arizona again so on we go.
Our next stop was 2 days in Alabama at Gulf Shores. The beaches are white powder and beautiful. We visited this area 4 years ago right after Hurricane Ivan and saw much damage then but it has almost completely recovered. The State Park has been completely rebuilt but you can still see the great loss of trees that they endured from the salt water that came ashore with the hurricane winds. (Alice and Ed - we did not find the condo tower that you had visited in the past - I think it must have been taken down) We stayed in a brand new "RV Resort" named Bella Terra with all the amenities - I had a coupon for 2 free nights so we could see what a great place it was and consider purchasing a lot - it was lovely but we are not settling down yet!
Then it was on to Louisiana - did not see much hurricane damage from the interstate as we traversed the state - only occasional signs not yet repaired or derelict business. Then we crossed into Texas - just in time for a cold wavehave been VERY cold up north but to us daytime temps of 15C and nights of 2C are very cold - I'm back to wearing socks and long pants!! (I know - Boo Hoo!!)
