Davis Bayou Area Part 2
Gulf Islands National Seashore, MS, March 2026 Since I missed adding my selfies before the first David Bayou Area post went up, I decided another post needed to be added. I forgot my phone that attaches to my scope today which is the reason for no scope pictures. Mostly landscapes and selfies. First picture was…

Hood’s Ducks
Hood’s Outdoor Center, Alabama, March 2026 Anyone who has ever driven with Kate (especially when she is the driver) knows she can’t resist large roadside attractions.

Best way to stay cool in the summer

Keeping Up with the Trends
Escatawpa Hollow State Park, AL, March 2026 Wednesday started with John’s office being invaded by lonely cats. And it ended with frogs and toads raining from the sky. Okay, Okay.

Tyler SP to Poverty Point Reservoir SP Directions, Selfies and Sunset.
Poverty Point Reservoir State Park, LA, February 2026 For some reason, the 236 mile drive from Tyler State Park to Poverty Point took longer than normal. I could have been that we left later due to the extra time needed to safely move the trailer out of the Tayler SP site which was a pull…

In search of an Alligator
Poverty Point Reservoir Marina, LA, February 2026 I’m told that the park has alligators. Thankfully, the gators don’t visit the campsites, unlike some other parks in Louisiana. Today, my goal was to find out where the gators hang out, and hopefully, see one. I started my search by going to the park office and talking…
