Gulf Coast Getaway
By Ed. Filed in Home and Garden, Life, Travel |
When I gave Claude a call this afternoon I was surprised to have him actually answer the phone. Usually he is gone from the house all day and I just expect to leave a voicemail message. But this afternoon he answered the phone and it caught me off guard. LOL!
So Claude was packing his gear and getting ready to head south for a long weekend of fishing on the Gulf Coast. This is the perfect time of year to head to the Florida panhandle or Alabama coastline. Most of the tourists are long gone and the off season room rates are really cheap.
He has a buddy with a nice fishing boat and they often go out into the Gulf together for a day of deep sea fishing. Claude is even thinking of buying a time share at one of those vacation condos in Destin or Ft. Walton, so he can leave some of his clothes and gear down there locked in a closet and have a place that feels more like home when he goes down for a weekend.
