Pretty nice day
This morning we went to Ryans for breakfast. They have a buffet on Sat and Sun. Morning's. It was good Might be the last time we can do that as we don't know where the next one is. Then later we went to a Moc couple and saw some things he had done to their trailer. They have the same model we do. Theirs is just a tad older. Same year. We were there a couple of hours and then headed back to the trailer. On the way we stopped a WalMart for some groceries. This evening we went to church here. It was at 7:00. Then stopped at Bruno's groceries to get some country crock as walmart did not have the small ones we like that fit in our fridge better. Now have the Olympics on. Canada beat the Us in the skating thing called pursuit I think. Well tomorrow we are going to the battleship and sub. Going to set the alarm or we will not get up in time. So later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Lazy Day
We did not do much of anything today other than to meet some Montana owners for lunch. Three of us had the seafood buffet and the other ones ordered from the menu. After we were done eating we sat around and talked probably for about an hour and half or more. When they started running the vacuum cleaner almost next to us we thought maybe we should leave. So we went outside and talked a little more and then we all headed home. Our little group here in the campground is going to get smaller. One couple is leaving for In in the morning. Heading for Logansport. They will come down to SC for the retiree rally toward the end of March. Guess that's about it for tonight Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Dolphin Cruise
Today we took the Dolphin cruise. I took about a hundred pictures. Only put 84 on the web site here
It was a fun trip. I would recomend this to anybody. There were two boats that went out and when one would spot the ddophins they would tell the other one and then the two boats would get about 30 yards apart and then speed up. The dolphins would jump and roll in the waves. It was so neat. Thelma and I both enjoyed it. Tomorrow for lunch we are meeting a couple of Moontana owners for lunch. The one couple we met a couple of weeks ago. The other couple just got back to the park. So should be a good time. I also posted some other pictures in the Gulf shores album. The state park we are going to is at Niceville Fl. Not a real big campground. Meeting some friends there for 10 days. We leave then and head east and north to Mrytle Beach Thats about it for tonight. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Laundry Day
We got the laundry done today. We tried a different one over in orange beach. Much cleaner and the washers worked. We had a couple of rugs to do and the one we had been using washers did not work. We first went to the waffle house to have breakfast. Their is a lady there that is from Jersy and she sound like it. She is so funny. We have been there a couple of times to eat breakfast. We came home and ate lunch and sat around. This evening we went to Bingo. Thelma won twice and I won once. First time I have won since we have been here. Got a small package of M&Ms. Thelma got a washcloth and 4 valentine cups. You are supposed to bring a dollar gift. Can't see where a washcloth would cost a dollar. Oh well this was the last night for us as next week we will be in Fl. We will be leaving here on Mon. Not sure what time. It is about two hrs to get where we are going. Check in is 3:oo We will have plenty of time to get there. Can't think of much else tonight . Tomorrow we go on Dolphin cruise. That should be fun. Hope to get a lot of pictures. Later all Ron and Thelma

Boring day
We did not do much today. Went to outlet place and Thelma bought a pair of shape ups from scechers. We also went to Lamberts home of the throwed rolls. We then came home and laid around. Later we took Eli and drove over to orange Beach to find a laundromat. We found it so tomorrow we do the weekly thing. Thursday we do the dolphin cruise. That should be good. Think the weather is supposed to be halfway decent. Would still like to get over to the USS Alabama. Running out of time. Maybe sometime we will come back down here but not next year. And I will make reservations at a regular campground that has cable and wifi. Guess that's about it for tonight. Later All Ron Thelma and Eli

Tank fixed.
Today we got the grey tank fixed. It was leaking on the bottom where it had been repaired before. They asked if we had ever had it fixed and I said no. We bought this new and never had the belly off. So it came from the factory like that. Boy what a cheap outfit Montana is. I bought a new trailer with a bad tank. Oh well at least it is fixed and they didn't take me to the bank. I was surprised at what they charged. They came around 10:30 or so and left around 1:00 Maybe a little before. They got a 2X4 and had it cut to fit under the tank from frame to frame to help keep the stress off of it when full. That should help. I took some pictures but they are on the other camera and it is in the truck. After lunch we went to McDs and I uploaded pictures from The fort and some other ones. Also put two new videos on the web sight. Added pictures to Gulf Shore album and Fort Gaines is the new one. The place we went to beside the fort is the Estuarium. WWW.sealabestuaruim.org Check it out. It was pretty neat. Would have liked to stay longer but can only do so much in one day. We stopped at the post office this afternoon and picked up our mail. That will be the last one we get here. Then stopped at Wally World to get a few things and get some cash. You can use your debit card and get cash back. That works good. Tomorrow think we are going to fairhope and see some flowers. Not sure what else. Fri we are going to see dolphins. That is supposed to be a pretty good day as far as weather goes. We are going to go to Lamberts yet one more time. Not sure when. Told Thelma if it rains we will go there. That's about it for tonight Later All Ron Thelma and Eli

Doing some tuorist thing
Today we went out to Dauphin Island to see Fort Gaines which
was a civil war Fort. We took the ferry over and back We had kinda planned on driving around the long way but it was 1 1/2 hrs so decided to take the ferry. It was probably the best day we have had here. It was in the upper 60's Just what we have been waiting on. You can see by the first picture how nice it was.
We had a great time walking the fort. After that we went to the ecotaruim. Will put a link on that when I find the paper for it. It was pretty good. not sure it was worth the price. We need to get to see the Dolphins yet. Want to do that next week. Tomorrow the guy comes to fix the tank. At least we hope so. Thelma did real well on walking the Fort. I will try and get all the pictures uploaded tomorrow sometime. Depends on when the guy gets here and when I can get away for some wifi. That's about it for tonight.
Later all Ron Thelma and Eli who had to stay home most of the day.
