December Already

We have really been enjoying our time here at Gulf Shores. The RV park is quiet and friendly. The laundry is only 1 site away from us so it is handy. We spent a couple of days this week checking out a few stores around here, an outlet mall, some flea market stores, a Habitat Restore, and a few others, and had lunch one day at a Lambert's restaurant up the road from us. We had eaten at one in Missouri a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. They are famous for throwed rolls. After you get your meal, they bring around fresh baked rolls and throw them to you. They also bring around fried okra, macaroni and tomatoes, black eyed peas, fried potatoes and onions, and cooked cabbage. Loved it. Walked away stuffed and brought home leftovers for supper. We had our mail shipped to us so I have a few magazines to catch up on as well as some books from the library here. Last night they had a lighted Christmas parade that went down the street in front of the RV Park, so I walked out to watch it. It was fun. Here are a few of the units in the parade.

And last but not least, Santa on the fire truck!

Today I drove over to a huge flea market in Mobile that I had been to when we stayed in Mobile a few years ago. It's about an hour and half drive from here, but worth the drive. Stopped at a Camping World on the way back and picked up some drawer latches for the motorhome.
