Vaca 2020 - Day 5 - Orange Beach, Alabama (more days than just 5!)

It took a bit to figure out which building our new "home" was in, but once we found it and figured out what we had to do to get our stuff up to our quarters during the Covid32 - 19, we found this!

And this...

And this...  not bad!

I spent a good number of hours sitting out on the patio just listening to the ocean rolling in.  Such a wonderful, relaxing sound.  Caleb and I were out there at night and started noticing these red lights on the beach to the East.  The lights slowly progressed their way to the West but it wasn't any clearer as to what they were doing as they went by right in front of us.  What was clear is that there was a driver and then a few people in each pick-up that got out and "did things".

So what these peeps are doing is hunting crabs.  What was truly interesting is that there was no "hot-spot" from one night to another.  The first night, they stopped right in front of our building and spent a good bit of time there.  The next two nights they pretty much drove right by with very brief stops.

What is this???  I have no idea and hope you can tell me!

Mama and Caleb down on the beach in the morning.

Bands of rain from the hurricane South of us.

Looking mostly West (a bit North) from the porch on the front of our building.

Looking straight North from the same location.

And looking Northeast from the same location again.

We vacation pretty hard... he was whooped.

This guy was happy to have his own room and spent a whole lot of time in that room!

This fella was happy to be out on a shopping trip with Mom when this was taken.  I have no idea where this was taken at as I was probably back at the condo listening to the ocean.

Someone tried to "snap into a slim jim' but lost their grip on said sausage...  It was a cause of great enjoyment and laughter from us.

A storm rolling in...  from the South side of our domicile.

Storm rolling out from the North side of our domicile.

We were about 3 floors down on the right side of the building in this picture.  Such a great unit to rent, but not cheap.  We enjoyed it immensely! 


The boys out in the water.

I am scared of ocean waters, but these two and their mama are not!!



My loves!!!!  I love them even more when they are peaceful together!

This was the area betwixt the condo's and the beach.  I don't recall what the sign says they were trying to accomplish, but you could NOT go into this area and disturb the natural habitat.
