Oh, to spend Thanksgiving in Gulf Shores & Orange Beach! A work colleague of mine is headed down there this week with her husband a small group of friends, and I am just a bit jealous (we are headed north this year to spend the holiday with friends).
I won’t know what they decided until I see her at work next week, but they had been debating whether to enjoy dinner out on Thanksgiving or follow tradition and cook a big meal in their condo. If they decide to eat out, they’ll have plenty of options: several Gulf Shores & Orange Beach restaurants will be open for business Thursday. And the whole purpose of vacation is, after all, relaxation—why worry over preparing a big meal (and the post-meal cleanup) when a restaurant can take care of it for you?
On the other hand, I personally am a fan of tradition. I’m pretty sure that if we were spending Thanksgiving on the Gulf, I would put the kitchen of our Gulf Shores Plantation condo or beach cottage to good use. Maybe. Or maybe the temptation of a good dinner out at a beach-side restaurant would be too much.
Maybe we’ll get the chance to find out next year…better start planning next year’s holiday getaway on the Gulf.
