Final State - Florida!!

I can't believe we're in our final state! We had a rest day yesterday in Dauphin Island AL. Dolly and I decided to exercise our walking muscles (if we could find them). We walked all over the island and logged about 10 miles. The highlight of our day was watching a turtle lay her eggs and then cover them up with sand. Definitely a "Discovery Channel" moment.

This morning we started with a 40-minute ferry ride from Dauphin Island to Fort Morgan AL. Although we rode into a headwind all day, it was a great ride. We rode by beautiful beach homes which gradually morphed into rather ritzy-looking condo developments. The roads were terrific. Nice wide & smooth shoulders. Lovely white sand beaches and dunes with the Gulf Coast constantly on our right-hand side. We're staying in a funky little Art Deco hotel in downtown Pensacola tonight. After a 58 mile day we had our last margarita party in the parking lot tonight.

Sheila - the last picture is for you. Pleasant Grove FL......

      Yes but they're on my camera (not my iPhone) and I don't have the technology to transfer.
