Hillsboro, Alabama to Gulf Shores, Alabama

Today was much better than yesterday but to be fair God blessed us yesterday too but overall today seemed to be much smoother.  We left Hillsboro a bit later than we had hoped because after I woke up in the middle of the night it took both Cody and me awhile to fall back asleep so we slept in longer than usual (we didn't set an alarm...ughhh).

Once we were on the road driving was a breeze however because we still work while on the road we had to stop at a truck stop to not only eat lunch and fuel up but get some much needed work done.  Unfortunately the internet there was not stellar and our cell service did not get decent signal so we couldn't hotspot Cody's phone, which is usually what we do. 

After getting back on the interstate it looked like we were making great time and would get to our destination well before 6pm (which is the latest the RV park accepts new customers).  During the drive a car came up next to us and when we rolled the window down the nice couple told us that our sewage line was coming out of the bumper....looks like we lost the cap for the sewage line holder thing on the bumper...oops!  We pulled over and took care of it.  Then back on the road still making great time and then our GPS alerts us that there has been an accident on the interstate and there is a 2 hour delay.  We did not have time for a 2 hour delay if we wanted to get to the RV park before 6pm so we started looking for alternate routes.  Now my iPhone is no help when it comes to that because the Maps app for iPhone is awful.  Using Cody's Android I found a route that seemed to be better but we were not sure if the route had any low clearances that would not accommodate our height, which is 13'6.  So we crossed our fingers and went that route.  Luckily we had no trouble with height although the roads were narrow.

We called the RV park and told them we were running a few minutes behind and did not think we would be there by 6pm and thankfully they were so flexible and told us a route that would be best to go and they waited well longer than they had to for us.  Thank you...thank you...thank you Bay Breeze RV.  When we pulled in they were very helpful and so nice.  I will be saying a prayer tonight for them for God to shower them in His blessings.

We got settled in and headed to the beach after sunset.  It was beautiful.  A nice breeze by the water while enjoying a cold beer after a long day of traveling with the man I love...life is good!!!
