Rainbow on the Beach Walking along Pensacola Beach, I saw this lonely beach umbrella waiting for someone to come visit. Fortunately, the wind wasn't heavy or it might have taken a trip of its own down the shore.
Gun Over Mobile Going east on I-10 across Mobile Bay, you pass right by the Battleship USS Alabama. Stop. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Exit now and enter Battleship Memorial Park. This is a great place for the entire family. It's full of history with lots to see, both on and off the ship. There is a hanger with WWII airplanes and the USS Drum submarine. On the grounds you will also see tanks, vehicles, anti-aircraft guns and more. This gun (or cannon) points back to the city of Mobile.
A Constellation Sunset Our new minor league baseball team, the Skeeters, play at the new Constellation Field. It’s a great ballpark and every seat is a good one. The more expensive seats behind home plate have a good view of the infield and are close to all the food vendors. But the hidden gems at this ball park are the “cheap” seats in the outfield. I suppose the setting sun might be in your eyes for an inning or two, but when there’s a pretty sunset, they have a great front row seat. Don’t tell anyone though, or they might start charging more for the extra view.
