We got away from home around eight this morning. An uneventful drive through Hattiesburg, Mobile, and Pensacola, to Fort Pickens National Park out on Santa Rosa Island. An uneventful trip except for some tornado damage just outside Mobile that delayed us for a few minutes. Had everything set up in the campground by 3 PM.
Pretty cool with temps around 50 and a brisk North wind. Met a couple of friends that were already here, but no one wanted to sit outside and visit. Wanda and Sally held down the fort while I decided to brave the wind and take a walk on the beach. One thing for sure, there were no crowds to avoid.
The sun was shaded by thin clouds which only added to the chill.
A few unusual things washed up on the beach. Wonder where this guy came from?
The clouds did make for a beautiful sunset.
Looking the other direction.
Another dunes shot and a few hurricane relics from the campground.
It’s supposed to be 32 degrees tomorrow morning, but things are toasty in the Casita. We’ll see what tomorrow, holds………..jc
