65 Days and Counting

We have booked our beach trip! (Insert choir singing the Halleluluiah Chorus here.) NINE fabulous days where the sand meets the ocean in beautiful Ft. Morgan, Alabama! We're going for our one year anniversary at the end of September. We were able to go there on our honeymoon thanks to the most wonderful person who offered us their family beach home for the week since they weren't going to be using it. It was fate. Greg had never really spent much time at the beach, but I would rather be at the beach than... well, than be much of anywhere. I do love me some sand and ocean. Sigh.

Anyway, once we got there Greg LOVED it. Very relaxing. Very comfortable. The house was perfection. We literally sat in the floor and giggled when we first got there because we never imagined such an awesome place. And we had a practically deserted beach the first week of October! We ate huge meals once a day at local restaurants, with no crowds and no wait. Bahama Bob's is the absolute best place on the beach for seafood. Cosmos had the best steak. We were supposed to leave the next Saturday but couldn't. We decided to leave early Sunday morning. Yeah. We left at like 4pm on Sunday, reluctantly. We've been back to Gulf Shores once since, spent the night in Orange Beach and ate at Bob's, then came home. Now we're going back for real. For NINE DAYS and I can't wait. 65 days. Here are some of our favorite views from last time:
