Gulf Shores is coming up next month folks!
Work has thrown a curve ball into my schedule. I have to do some on-line live training via computer Wednesday-Friday May 22-24 for 8 intense hours each day. Not the kinda thing that can be done via a cell-phone hot spot connection and GSP has no WIFI so I can't pull a "garneska" and "work" from my campsite. That's when DW and I was scheduled and that's when I have to be "present" on-line. Can't not show up on-line. Not the kinda thing I want to try to pull off at a Starbucks either.
I am trying to come up with alternatives but I may be home in the office for these unless I come up with a reliable solution.
With regards to my calendar, I'm actually coming to Gulf Shores on Sunday May 19 to position the trailer in site #4 and leave it there during the week so my mom and dad can use it (their cheap beach condo, so to speak). I've done this in past years and tiggerdad has met my dad down there but it's my tradition to book two weeks at Gulf, take the camper down on arrival Sunday, and let them use it till I come down at the end of the week (which might be REALLY the end of the week). Not sure yet when they are using it and when I will come in so it's fluid. But I like coming in a week early, eating lunch in Gulf Shores, setting up the camper, then heading home same day. I can get the "lay of the land" before we head down for good on vacation. If I leave early enough I can catch Mass at the church in Gulf Shores too. So we shall see.
One of my games to play before a campout is to start checking the weather WAY in advance. Yeah I know it's gonna change between now and then but it helps me look forward to the event (especially when the weather looks good). So for all you gamblers out there, here is the forecast for the end of May in Gulf Shores. Looks pretty decent.
I'm gonna have to have a word with Saint Peter about that wet stuff on May 31 and June 1.
Tick tock.
