April 5th Tuesday, Golf Shores on route to Panama City Florida…to April 7 Thursday…

Overnight Monday we had a thunderstorm and lots of rain with lightning, only lasted a ½ hour but sure did get the high humidity out of the air….
We took off today for the Gulf Shores (City)…..it really resembles the Florida coast line around Tampa, Redington Shores and Indian Rocks….same kind of situation.  Larry was the car driver today so we just toured around different areas that got us right up into the state of Florida at Pensacola, only for a short time then back to Alabama.  Florida comes tomorrow!  However today we also did 18 holes of golf back at the Magnolia Golf & RV Park…I was the only one to get a BIRDY, have to say we did enjoy the game as it has been a while since Brownsville our last game.
Wednesday we are off from Magnolia Springs to Panama City about 175 miles.  We travelled Highway 30A in the motorhomes (very challenging) , up the 98 into Panama City Beach, then head out 30 miles to Pine Lakes RV Resort.  It was a little far out but we made the best of it and enjoyed our stay here.
Thursday, we headed back to Panama City, 30 miles back to the city. But we toured the beach area, the hotel/condo zone and out to the State Park, where we did a bit of memory lane as it was three winters ago that we were here and we where driven out by one tornado after an other!!  However today was very different, we had wonderful sun and warm temperatures so we walked the beach.   We had a great last lunch for this trip at a Steak house on the beach and are now counting moments till we say goodbye Friday morning….

Night all...
