We have had a couple of quiet days here at HoHum park, on
the shores of the Gulf of Mexico.
On Saturday we explored the area to our west, including
wandering in some shops in the small town of Apalachicola (try saying that a
couple times!). A sign for an adult daycare caught our attention:
Closer to where we are parked is an interesting lighthouse,

Bob made the 138 step climb.
The views were great:
Also nearby, in the town of Carabelle, is the world smallest
Police Station. Although we didn’t get a
photo, you can see details at http://www.roadsideamerica.com/tip/242
Today, Monday, we took a road trip north to Tallahassee to
check out a yarn shop (without buying anything). On the way we passed a graveyard for old
trucks; see http://www.roadsideamerica.com/tip/15949
Late this afternoon a pod of dolphins passed just
offshore. We didn’t get a picture, but
neighbors say that they come by twice every day.
Tomorrow we will move again.
This time to a Fort Pickens on the Gulf Island National Seashore, near
Pennsacola Florida. We will pick up our
mail there and relax for a few more days before volunteering next week for some
rebuilding of flooded homes in Pennsacola.
