Along the Gulf

We had been looking forward to our visit with John and Becky and their daughter. They have a travel trailer and camped with us over the weekend. Harold could hardly wait to uncork the Pappy 12 year whiskey that he had been carrying around.

It's Pappy Time

Always a Flag Guest

We stayed at Presley's Outing in Moss Point, MS. We were given a lakefront site and really enjoyed the view. Mr. Presley was certainly very accommodating and super nice. We will say that some of the sites had a, um, really unusual layout. No alligators though, unless one had gotten out from the gator farm up the road.

Beautiful sunset at Presley's Outing

Speaking of the gator farm, we did opt to take an airboat swamp ride from Gulf Coast Gator Ranch. Incidently, they are a Harvest Host location too. Neither of us had been on an airboat and we enjoyed our little ride around the swamp. Sam, our guide, knew his stuff and took great delight in getting us airborne. 

Here we go!

Scary big

Got him!

Zooming in

Since Harold was stationed in nearby Pascagoula when the USS Leyte Gulf was being built, he had quite a few memories. He just had to go to Bozo's for some seafood. Back in the day, they'd swing by Bozo's, buy over ten pounds of crawdads and take them back to the barracks. Thankfully for me, Bozos makes sausage po boys. 

Oh yeah!

Time to move on, a little further east, to Pensacola and the famcamp there.
