Anyone
headed to the Gulf this winter? I wish we were! It’s been a brutal winter so
far, and it’s only January. I am already thinking about an escape to Gulf
Shores & Orange Beach.
If
we were there now, I’d be on the beach—maybe not in the Gulf, it is January
after all. But I could still enjoy walking the beach, even sitting and watching
the waves while reading a good book. Or I’d be enjoying one of the various
amenities at Gulf Shores Plantation. Like the
tennis courts. I love playing tennis in cooler weather (but not frigid weather).
And I’d be on the putting greens, warming up for a round of golf next door at
Kiva Dunes. I might even be down at the resorts’ Connections Café, enjoying the
beach view and catching up on some work, while the kids entertain themselves in
the Adventure Zone Game Room. We are never bored at Gulf Shores Plantation.
But
we do like to get out once in a while. And I always enjoy being outside during
the winter on the Gulf Coast—simply because you can be outside. So we would
probably be enjoying the scenery at Gulf State Park and the Hugh S. Branyon
Back Country Trail, or taking in a little history with the fresh air at Fort
Morgan.
