Driving around

Downtown Fairhope, AL
 On our last day in Alabama, we decided to take a drive with the dogs to Fairhope, Alabama.  It has a nice downtown area, very nicely decorated with American Flags and flowers.

Someone Parasailing in Mobile Bay

We drove down to the water and found a nice park with a beach and pier. Saw someone parasailing, going back and forth along the shoreline. I think you would have to have good upper body strength to do that. It looks like fun!
Fairhope's Pier

Beautiful Homes along the coastline

Then we drove down the coast of Mobile bay. There are some very nice homes along the coastline. We also found a few geocaches along the way. We have broke the 200 finds mark!

Tree lined street in Magnolia Springs, AL.
Magnolia Springs, Alabama is a neat little town. It doesn't have much as far as businesses. A few gas stations and popular restaurant with a little general store/deli attached to it. The Magnolia River goes through town and it is the only place in the continental U.S. that still has mail delivered via the river. The town was named for the natural spring they have and all of the Magnolia trees that bloom in the spring.  I bet that is a pretty site! Later-M
