April 25 - Yup, we had to go to Lulu's! Around 11:00 AM we started getting our dinghy down to get ready to head to Lulu's for "Cheeseburgers in Paradise". Just before we were going to head out, S/V Delayed Gratification texted telling us they were passing Lulu's and would be at The Wharf shortly. We hung around and caught their lines then headed out. They settled in then put their dinghy in the water and met up with us at the restaurant.
On our way we has some "Waker's" but not as many as yesterday. We were invited to come back tomorrow for the Lucy Buffett Cookbook Launch Party and Book Signing from 3pm to 8pm but we decided to pass.
April 26 - Curtis, Diane, Al and Kay rented a car to go home for a few days. Cristol, Jeff, Josh and I took our dinghies over to Orange Beach to explore and play. It was about 8 miles away and it was kind of choppy but we were up to the challenge. We had lunch at Tacky Jack's and it was really good! When it was time to head back to The Wharf it was even more choppy than coming. My body hurts from all the bouncing. Maybe I bounced some fat off! LOL!!
Orange Beach is my favorite area because you have so many boating options. You are close to the Mississippi Islands, Dauphin Island, Mobile, Orange Beach, Pensacola, Destin and Panama City. You can anchor out or go to marinas. What a life!
April 27 - Whoo hoo, laundry day! We are running into lots of Texas cruisers on this trip. Everywhere we go we meet more. This morning we ran into an old friend, Tim Sneider, from Clear Lake Shores. They came into the marina yesterday evening.
After lunch S/V Longhawk came in from anchoring at the islands for the past several days and joined us at The Wharf. The original group is all together again!
The Wharf now has bikes you can use to ride around the area so after S/V Longhawk was all tied up we used The Wharf's bikes to ride to West Marine.
We all gathered at Ginny Lane Bar and Grille for an early drinks and dinner. This place was great - just like our last trip with $3.00 wine, early dinner specials and one free martini. Life is good!
