I am happy to say that sometimes a good vacation and get a way does a person more good than they would ever think it would. We left on July 4th, 2013 to find an adventure and with no set plans but, to just go and play it all by ear. We had planned to watch the fireworks in New Orleans but after seeing how many people there was in that city we decided to just drive on down the coast. As we sat in a truck stop diner eating a very late supper we seen some fireworks shooting off but, as we drove down the coast we seen more. My husband drove forever then finally decided to stop our first night out I am not sure just what town it was but, I think we was on the coast in Alabama somewhere. It was a studio 6 and had a stove and full fridge and all and the price wasn't too bad either. The next morning we got up and headed on out down the coast some more we ended up at Motel 6 in Destin, Florida and let me tell you we was extremely unhappy with that motel it seriously sucked with no towels and filth and no ice but, the first supper out with the boys and my first ever po-boy shrimp sandwich was good and the best punch drink ever with 4 types of rum was good but, I ended up really sick later that night with heartburn so bad I thought I was dieing. Wait let me back up a bit before we came into Destin we went to through a cool tunnel that takes us under water and we went to a really cool military museum that had Dennis B52 and USS alabama ship and a submarine to tour on as well. We ended back at Pensacola, Florida and spent 3 or 4 days there stayed at the Howard Johnson which btw if you're on a small budget wasn't to bad price wise but lacked a lot to be desired. We had to change rooms twice once because no wifi in the second building and the other because we came back and the AC was off and wouldn't come back on. It had a pool that the boys was happy about using. We spent a lot of time on the beach. We rode out in the bay in a huge boat and did a dolphin tour, ate at Hooters on the island, and visited Ft Pickens. Dennis and the boys also went to the aviation naval museum but i just wanted to sleep :) . Later in the week we went up to Tallapoosa Georgia to spend time with Rebbeca and Elizabeth and Bryanna. We ended up staying at the Microtel Inn & Suites the best hotel ever! The first night we swam at the hotel pool. The next day we went skating and the third Rebbeca BBQ at her house. I also did a photo shoot with the girls. Nikki and Neely, and Kristiann came over Saturday morning and we visited with them a short time before we hit the road about 1pm and we spent about 12-14 hours in the car on the drive all the way straight through to home. I was so miserable by the time we got back my feet was so swollen and I have a UTI very uncomfortable was just ready to be home and out of the car.
