Tallulah’s and Throwed Rolls…
Today we got a late start, leaving about noon to drive down toward Orange Beach and Tallulah’s, a must-stop gift shop there. It used to be called Tootie’s Yellow Broom and we’ve been going there for years.
Afterwards we drove down toward Alabama Point to check things out. While we were down there I got this great shot.
Leaving the Point we drove up to Foley to have a late lunch at one of our favorite places, Lambert’s Throwed Rolls. We both had the fried chicken and had plenty left over to take home.
After lunch I dropped Jan off to get a pedicure while I stopped off at Ace Hardware to get some hot glue sticks and a few other things.
Coming back toward Gulf Shores we took a detour down to our old house on the Bon Secour River. My parents built it in 1958 after they sold our motel on the beach at Gulf Shores. They sold it when we came back from Colombia, South America in 1963. It’s right on the river and was a really nice house.
On the way back to the rig we dropped by Books A Million to check out the new magazines, and then got cappuccinos at our favorite place.
Getting back home we sat out with the cats while enjoying the beautiful view right beside our rig.
Even Emma came out for a few minutes.
After sitting out a while we heading in for the night.
More tomorrow…
