Perdido Key, FL

1/28-2/10/2020

Because of its length I will break this into two postings.

After a night at a resort marina in Orange Beach, AL we moved to an RV resort and marina on Perdido Key.  This is a barrier island just south of Pensacola and close to the Navy base there.

We have good friends, and a former CO, TK and Les Quigley, who own a house about a mile from the marina.  They were kind enough to let us park our car in their driveway while we made the trip down from northern Mississippi, and again after we departed this area.  These great people are shown below.

At Perdido Key I continued maintenance projects on the boat and we enjoyed the warmer weather.  We managed to take a day to visit the lighthouse and Naval Air Museum on the base in Pensacola.  A fun visit, and some of the museum photos are below.  With the recent shooting on the base in Pensacola access to the museum is available only to military ID holders.  Because our friends are military retirees we were lucky enough to accompany them onto the base to visit the museum.

While we were at Perdido Key TK and Les had another former CO visit, Ray and Barb Leonard.  Ray is in some of the photos above.  It was a great time to see old friends that we hold in such high regard.
