Pirates Cove and Florabama have provided a whole new level of chilling out. We have only gone 10 miles in two days and are just enjoying the tropical feel of Orange Beach, Alabama.  Mostly sunny and 70's.  We did ride bikes over the Florida line today too.  The staff and locals (including lots of dogs) at Pirates Cove were some of the most friendly so far on the Loop. Bare feet and storytelling made the night.  Just wear shoes in the men's room... see pic below.

Florabama is another great beach spot. We had lunch with Rob Rosemont, a Loop friend we hadn't seen in many weeks. Football Saturday still raging here in Roll Tide country.
