THE FLOWERS ARE IN BLOOM AND IT IS SO PRETTY IN ORANGE BEACH AND GULF SHORES. EVEN ROBERSTSDALE AND FOLEY, THESE TOWNS WERE FULL OF SPRING COLORS. WE DID GO TO THE OLD DRUGSTORE IN FOLEY. INSIDE UP TO WARDS THE CEILING WAS A LOCOMOTIVE GOING AROUND THE DRUGSTORE ON A TRACK. THIS WAS REALLY NEAT. I HAD AN OLD TIME CHOCOLATE MALT. IT WAS
DELICIOUS. THE PRO-PIETER OF THE DRUG STORE SPENT TIME TALKING WITH US. HE WAS SO NEAT TO TALK TO. WE TALKED TO HIM ABOUT DYKE'S ANIMAL HOSPITAL AND HE GUARANTIED US THAT IT WAS A REPUTABLE ANIMAL HOSPITAL. I ALREADY KNEW HE WAS THE VET FOR THE ZOO IN GULF SHORES. I WAS TOLD HIS WIFE HAD A SUGAR GLIDER OF HER OWN. HE HAD NEVER BOARDED THERE BUT HAD NEVER HEARD ANY COMPLAINTS FROM ANYONE. I REALLY CHECKED THE HOSPITAL THE BEST I COULD FOR MEME'S SAKE. THEY WERE VERY CLEAN AND VERY CORDIAL. I CHECKED ON MEME EVERYDAY. THEY LET ME SPEND AS MUCH TIME WITH HIM AS I NEEDED. THEY EVEN LET ME TAKE HIM OUT. MEME DID NOT EAT GOOD AT ALL OR DRINK. HE DID EAT FROM MY HAND. HE REALLY HAD ME WORRIED
SUGAR BEACH CONDO'S ENTRY AND GUARD HOUSE
. MEME DID MAKE IT THOUGH AND WAS SO HAPPY TO GET BACK HOME. I WASN'T THAT EAGER TO GET BACK HOME. I SO LOVE THE BEACH...AND I ALWAYS ASK MY FATHER FOR ANOTHER TIME AND LET IT NOT BE MY LAST TIME. HUBBY AND I REALLY HAD AN EXCEPTIONAL TIME TOGETHER. ALL THE FOOD WE ATE WAS SO GOOD! I DID NOT DO SO GOOD AT GIN RUMMY THOUGH. I WILL BEAT HIM NEXT TIME. I GOT THE SOCKS BEAT OFF OF ME. OF COURSE WE ATE OUR BIG BLOCKS AND PORK RINDS. I LIKE THE HOT AND HE LIKES THE PLAIN. EVERY THING AT THE CONDO WAS GREAT. THE BEACH ALMOST SEEMED LIKE IT WAS OUR VERY OWN. THAT IT WAS OURS...WHICH WAS WONDERFUL TO ME. DID NOT SEEM TO BE THAT MANY PEOPLE. WHO KNOWS MAYBE THIS WAS GOD'S REFRESHING TIME JUST FOR US. HUBBY HAD JUST FINISHED UP A ROOKIE SCHOOL AND GRADUATION AND I HAVE A YOUTH GROUP AT OUR CHURCH. WE HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY THIS YEAR. THANK YOU LORD! THE PICTURES REALLY TELL HOW LAID BACK THIS TRIP WAS!
