& Marvin with other customer at fish market
Fort MorganMarvin and Barbara picked us up at Dog River Marina on Wed. Nov. 18. On the way to their condo in Perdido Key, we stopped for lunch and shopping at Fairhope, Alabama. Fairhope is a lovely, artsy community that suits me well and I would recommend that if anyone has an opportunity to stop, take it.
Their condo is fantastic, displaying lovely sunsets night after night. They squired us around to some of their favorite spots ,and introduced us to a WONDERFUL type of shrimp Royal Reds, which we ate and ate and ate!! We visited Fort Morgan, a pre- civil war fort built originally to protect the coast and later was used to fend off the North, during the war of Northern Aggression. It didn't have a successful run, however, but was interesting nonetheless. John and Marvin visited the National Museum of Naval Aviation one day, while Barbara and I walked the beach and lazed in the sun. Even though I have a close relationship and love of aviation, when beach and sun are available my priorities are clear. SUN WINS EVERYTIME! All and all we had a great time and really appreciate their friendship. They even drove us back to Kentucky!
