Exploring

We woke up to another beautiful morning.  We actually got to moving a bit earlier this morning as we had several things to do on our list.  Here is a picture of where we are nestled in for a short stay.  I really like this corner spot as we do not have anyone in front of us.  I can walk the dogs across the road and they get to potty in the woods.

First on our list was to go pay for another 3 days as we’ve got some moving to do and decided we’d stay here while doing it. 

The picture above is of the ranger station.  They are so nice here.  This is quiet little park and we’ve really enjoyed our few days here so far.

 

The top picture is of the area for smaller campers, the bottom picture is for the bigger rigs like us and it makes a loop.  We love being in the woods although so far no satellite for hubby.

 

After taking Lexi for her morning walk, it was time to head to Biloxi to meet Steve for lunch and do a few errands.

Once we got finished with Steve we knew today would be our only time to go check out where we may be heading on Saturday.  So we headed over to Pascagoula, MS .

 

   

another big bridge … i don’t mind going over these bridges they are not too big.

 

We sure was glad we did some checking before hauling our rig over as the directions we got were not big rig friendly!  We finally found the place and had to do a circle and then we stopped to see where the hookups were.  Hmmm this is going to be fun.

   

On our way there we didn’t hit much traffic but on our way back we sure did.  The shipyards let out and man on man there was lots of traffic.

  

We got home in time to take Lexi on an afternoon walk before dark arrived.  I forgot my camera but we walked back to the primitive and picnic area and it’s very nice.  I am not sure i will have time to go back and get pictures this round.

 

If not i will get them when we come back right before Christmas.  We are planning to return before Christmas and spend Christmas here. 

We got back from our walk and it was time to get some dinner together.  I had chips & salsa (my mother in law made the salsa for me) and it was sooo good!  Hubby had left over baked potato and pork steak with gravy.

We are spending our evening relaxing and just enjoying a quiet evening together.  We are both exhausted from another busy day and the next few days are going to be even more busy. 

To the Beach

We started off to a lazy start.  We woke to a beautiful morning.  The sun is shining and it feels good to have my blinds up and let the warmth in.

Hubby fiddled with the satellite dish but couldn’t find a signal .. were not sure if it’s the area or if something happened to our receive in the travel.  While traveling down 49 in Mississippi, the beginning of the road is pretty ruff and we did lots of bouncing causing my printer to fall off and several things got misplaced including our receiver.  It just slide forward thanks to the cords holding it in place. 

Around 1 PM we decided to head to the beach.  As you can see in the pictures.  The road coming out of where we are is winding at times and a beautiful drive.  It’s about 1.5 miles from the highway.

   

We spent several hours just relaxing and wondering around the beach.  It appears to be low tide or the Gulf is going dry.

  

This family was having fun feeding the birds bread and as you can see the birds were enjoying being feed. 

  

This Crane had something in his mouth but we couldn’t get close enough to tell exactly what he had.

We had fun writing in the sand on the beach.  My honey wrote me love notes :))  I love you too honey!  It’s a beautiful day.  We had to wear long sleeves but no coat or jacket.  I prefer it a bit warmer but I'm so happy to see the sun and feel it’s warmth.

The traffic has gotten worse since we were here almost a year ago.  After spending a wonderful afternoon at the beach we needed to make a Wal-mart run as we were out of milk, bread and chips.

The campground is marked really well and i love it when we have good road signs. 

As you can see the sun was going down when we pulled in and we were starving.  I had put some pork steaks with gravy mix in the crock pot to cook while we were gone.  So all hubby had to do was throw us a couple of baked potatoes in the micro and dinner was done.  We spent the rest of the evening resting as we were both exhausted.  It was an early night to bed as my back and legs were hurting from too much fun.
