Morgan, an old fort on the coast from the Civil War.\u00a0 We also took the ferry over to Daulphin Island which was nice to explore and we found a great little place on the shore for a seafood lunch.\u00a0 We also visited the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, Florida.\u00a0 Very interesting place, with airplanes used by Navy, Marines and Coast Gard from early 1900&#8217;s to present day.\u00a0 This is also the home of the Blue Angels.<\/p>\n<p>Gerry has made a new BFF here at the RV park&#8230;Hamish the English Mastiff is 18 months old and weighs 210 pounds!\u00a0 He&#8217;s huge and so nice.\u00a0 He makes Gerry look like a lap dog next to him.\u00a0 They love each other and we frequently meet up at the dog park here in the RV resort so they can run and play.\u00a0 We have hiking trails right here at the RV resort, and they connect to the Gulf Shores State Park.\u00a0 So we can access about 25 miles of trails right out our door.\u00a0 So we&#8217;ve been walking a lot, and walked to the beach one day too, which is about 4 miles each way.\u00a0 We&#8217;ve seen 2 coyotes and a snake, but no alligators yet, although we&#8217;re told they are around.<\/p>\n<p>Lots of great seafood here and we&#8217;ve sampled all kinds of fresh catch.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve been cooking a lot and trying out new recipies.\u00a0 We&#8217;ll be leaving here on Feb 1st to our next stop in the Florida panhandle.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll be sure to give you an update from there.\u00a0 In the meantime, stay warm!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
