      It was very warm last night for sleeping the low overnight was 72F and 80% humidity. So no comforter, no blankets and windows open we got a wonderful sleep. Slept fast until 4 am then I was ready to go for the day. The morning exercises, breaky coffee and computing waiting for the sunrise to get out for a walkabout. Got my first mile in just after 6 am the headed down the road a few miles to the Piggly Wiggly in Loxley for a few grocery supplies.

love seeing all these huge Cotton bales harvested

not far from the campground they have

     Back home before 8 am and we discussed what to do today, forecast says rain most of the day so we decided  to take a drive to the Gulf Shores because it has been few years and thought we would go out for a seafood lunch.
      We have toured this area quite few times and like to at least stop and see the beach and a few things along the way. About an hours drive down to the beach and walk on the boardwalk (cement sidewalk) for a bit, but was over cast so not a real nice beach day but at least we were there again.
      Then made our way back north stopping at Camping world to get a new AC filter  that needs to be be replaced.

this was our nice morning drive to the beach

then there is me on the beach

This would be wonderful on a sunny day

nice Board?walk

     Heading back north we passed by Lambert's Cafe (home of the throwed rolls) an entertaining experience in eating it is for sure (you have to catch the fresh made rolls they throw) and the food in not too bad, but we have been there at least twice, were looking forward to some seafood.

Lambert's is a fun  experience

       Now all the way back to Robertdale and are ready for lunch at Fin's . Hey what the heck they are closed!!! Supposed to be open a family run operation with great seafood. Hmm. now what to do it is noon we hungry. We are not driving back to the Gulf for a seafood restaurant, BUT! we are always flexible. Around the corner we found the Magnolia Blossom Cafe.

   A nice family owned restaurant the kind we prefer rather than fast food chains, Lotsa cars parked outside , a good sign. So we checked it out regular menus, but an interesting buffet, and had food we would like. Southern fried chicken, baked chicken, catfish, chicken livers, liver and onions, mashed potatoes, gravy,  rice, beans, turnip greens, veggies, nice salad bar, corn bread muffins with jalapeños and  soup.. $10. each yup sounds good and it sure was . Got our catfish, chicken and salad fix and Suzie even had desert . More food than we could sample but we are very satisfied with the food and the service.

this was very tasty

    That was our fun outing for today home just after 1 pm and began to drizzle a bit , So open our awning to read outside and be dry still 79F and 85% humidity (no wind) so very comfortable. I did get a couple of walkabouts when the drizzle let up and tonight no need for supper again after that wonderful meal at lunch. We chatted with a few local people that dropped by to chat and enjoyed our e-readers. Me getting caught up with Elvis Coles adventures. By Robert Crais. Elvis is a private investigator with a humour always fun reading.

this is our afternoon view enjoying
the very nice warm weather

     Now to relax outside dark now and will take all this warm weather we can get, gonna soon cool off again.
    Read out here some more and head inside to see what's in tv for a bit. Then see what tomorrow brings.
    Thanks for joining us today and really hope y'all had great day as well.
