I remember the first time I crossed the Mississippi River Bridge forty-nine years ago. I was traveling to meet my future in-laws. I tossed a penny into those ‘well written about’ Huck Finn waters as we drove toward Oklahoma. I’ve now passed over that bridge hundreds of times and experienced a lot of living in between.
John and I camped at the Gulf State Park for the first time in 2012 and loved it. We decided we’d like to make it a yearly event but that was before John’s health took a dive. With the death of my mom and John’s cardiac situation, we didn’t think we’d be able to make the trip again. But alas, by God Grace, we’ve been able to return several times.
Hope you enjoy the pictures that follow. The first is taken from the Mississippi River Bridge, others from the beach, and then some from our camp site. On days that John was tired, we enjoyed sitting outside our trailer resting and reading and watching the Monarchs and other wild life. Thank you, Lord. Oh, and I did my shell-a-thon again. Pictures will follow later on those treasures.
Absolutely gorgeous, Pam! I’m happy you are enjoying the gift of God’s beautiful world.
Love, PR
