Day 42. Lillian, Alabama

We rode along the top of the Gulf of Mexico, through Mississippi to Alabama, to the town of Lillian which is just west of Pensacola, Florida.  Some highlights along the way were Navy ships and a "barn" quilt.  Even a tiny house can sport a quilt block.

 

















At first I wasn't so sure about this KOA, that is until we walked down to the dock.  Not bad, huh?






We drove over to Perdido Bay in Florida.  What a beautiful beach!  The sand is really white and very fine.  But the annoying part of our visit was finding out that the beach is owned by the condos and hotels along the waterfront.  I hate that!  There are public access points at designated spots and obnoxious signs telling the "others" to stay out.


And the sign said,
You have to have a membership card
to get inside.
(Five Man Electrical Band, 1971)



 


While we were there, we enjoyed some gumbo and Charlie had an oyster poboy.  Yum!
