Gulf Shores Year 2

Uncategorized 1 Minute

This year our winter trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama started a bit differently.

Richard left PEI Friday, Dec. 13th, arriving in Gulf Shores safe and sound on Sunday, Dec. 15th. We kept in close contact and when he knew the town where he’d be overnighting I went online and booked his hotel. Worked out very well except for one itty, bitty error on my part. His second night I made a mistake in the date. Oops.

Thank goodness for confirmation numbers. 😅 Whew! All was fine in the end.

He’s all settled in, been to the library and checked out some books, set up his post office box, got our gym memberships, and has been back to the fitness centre for yoga etc. all this week. 👏 Bravo Richard.

We FaceTimed on Sunday after he was in the house. Ooo jealous. It was warm and sunny. I could hear the waves crashing in the background. 🌊

To refresh your memory this is our vacation house while we’re there, showing the view from the road to the house.

And here is the other side. Such a looooooog walk from our deck to the beach. Haha. Just kidding. We really couldn’t be much closer could we.

Now these are last year’s pictures but you get the idea. Richard gets to enjoy all of this at the moment.

Me? I stayed on PEI as I love Christmas 🎄and all its traditions. I’m spending it with my family. Love to have a full table of family and friends for Christmas dinner. 🍗

On Jan. 4th I’ll be flying down to join him. Until then I’m filling my time with lots of hot yoga classes, treadmill, gym, and last minute Christmas organization. Plus searching online for a choir to join while I’m there. 🎶🤞🏼

I’ll chat again once I’m on my way there.

Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄 And Happy New Year too. 🎉

With retirement comes the opportunity for new experiences. Debi has a passion for music, singing, theatre, and travel. With her BMEd and MEd she had an extensive career which included elementary music education, performing, vocal instruction, choral conducting, musical theatre directing, and clinician work. She has, for the most part, retired from this very successful music career. But really, does one ever retire from music? I think not. So now the stage is set for the next act: interweaving her love for music, travel, and whatever else comes her way. Wherever her travels take her Debi shares her exploits: musical adventures, local interests, historical sites, local cuisine, the journey there and back, plus whatever life sends her. She'll share the hits and the misses, the successes and the failures, as well as any helpful hints she discovers along the way.
