The Gulf is nice!

We walked on the white sand. The weather is a bit chilly but the water feels nice. There appears to be many empty horseshoe crab shells (don't know the real name yet). I will research the reason for all of the empty shells. Collecting a lot of other shells. Great pictures will share on Wednesday. Connie Sue excited about all there is to do!

Going to the Gulf

Planning to spend quality time at the Gulf of Mexico this weekend. Down around Shell Point. Hope to get some great pictures to share. Connie Sue off for something fun to do!

Discovery Cruise Line to Freeport

Counting the days until I am in Grand Bahamas, November 14 & 15. Just taking a quick weekend cruise to catch up with old friends and get a check on the economy. Planning to take a group back in a few months and need to scout out hotel and fun things to do. It's been a while and I simply miss the friendly people and beautiful waters. The Conch Salad is calling my name. My mouth waters as I think of the fresh conch being pulled from the shell and beaten, seasoned and cut in preparation for the salad. Fresh bell peppers, onions, lime, and a secret seasoning which includes salt and pepper to taste. My mind goes forward to the crisp sardines mixed with bell peppers, onions, lime and seasonings served over grits I always have for breakfast. Another favorite is the Johnny Cake fresh from the oven with butter spead and melting on the cake. Yes it is not just the peoples, blue green waters, or mild temperatures, it is the food. Of course I could go on for hours and hours. As you can tell I love this place. Will keep you updated. Connie Sue always preparing for something fun to do!
