Vacationland

Brenda and I arrived in Orange Beach on Thursday night. After checking into the hotel, we hopped on our bikes and rode down to Perdido Key. The weather was still hot on Thursday with temps in mid 80's. We ate at Outback and went back to the room to watch TV and sleep. We were up and on the bikes again on Friday AM, but the temps were much cooler. We braved a chili wind as we rode to find a gas station that had an air machine that worked...Brenda needed air in her tires. After we finished with the ride, I worked for a while and we then headed to the Outlets. Brenda scored a real nice deal on a wool coat at Banana Republic. She sold me on it when she told me how nice it would look with a pair of jeans and boots. Wow! We both agreed it had been too long since we made a stop at Taco Bell, so we had burritos for lunch. It was a cold afternoon on the beach, but we dressed accordingly. As I write, we just finished splitting Fried Shrimp at Doc's Seafood Shack...the place for "laid back local stuff". We are having a little down time before having a cultural experience at "Florabama".
