Trip South Dec 08 to Jan 09

When we went to Florida last year we left before Christmas. We had a nice Christmas at Brenda’s house in Richmond, Va.

After we had Christmas at Brenda’s we went on to my sister Bobby’s (Barbara) place in Grove Hill, Alabama.

We had a good time visiting with her chrildren and grandchildren.

After we left Bobby’s place we went on down to the coast, west to New Orleans.

On the way we saw what the hurricane had left. We were here before the hurricane and saw all the beautiful homes. We were here in Dec 07 also. They have come along some but it is not up to what it was before the hurricane.

We had a free room at Harrah’s Casino for the night.

The next morning we went for a walk through the French Quarter. It was pretty quiet but there were still people out looking.

This place says House Of Blues.

This place was the Rats Hole.

The sea still looked beautiful. This picture was taken near Biloxi, Miss. Yes, we also stopped at some of the casino there. We stayed overnight at the Grand Biloxi Casino.

From there we went on to Florida. We stayed in the same 55 plus condo area in Ocala as we did this winter but in a different unit.
