BEACH BOUND

In spite of the looming oil slick closing in on our beaches, we are heading south to Gulf Shores Thursday for a few days. 

GULF SHORES OIL SPILL

We (David and I) haven’t been to Gulf Shores in a few years although my sister and I went two years ago to visit with my friend Judy.     

I am soooo ready for a few days of being lazy on the beach, shopping and of course eating.

One of my favorite places to go to is The Wharf in Orange Beach and Guy Harvey’s Restaurant.

The Wharf is a wonderful outdoor shopping experience

I’ll be back next week to share pictures of our adventures.     In the meantime, fingers crossed the only oil we see is on a salad!

  1. I have never heard of The Wharf! But you can bet your bottom dollar I'll be checking it out next spring when we're able to go back. :)

    Have a great time! I love Gulf Shores/Orange Beach, but I might love the fish tacos at The Hangout a little more!

  4. Please let us all know how your trip went! We are heading that way in a few weeks...hopefully! It is a yearly tradition that we sadly missed out on last year and we were sooo excited to be going but now with the oil spill we just are keeping our fingers crosses!
