My husband and I have been owned by two corgis so far. We live on 25 acres with 2 cats and 9 horses. I work at a bank and my husband is self employed as a computer tech. We are taking the "girls" to the Florida Gulf Coast for vaca. First time at the beach.
Tee Tucker ia a sable/white 8yo female who loves her mother. She was the first. I had read the Mrs. Murphy books and fell in love, so when I picked her she became Tucker. 4 years later I wanted another Corgi and went looking for a tri, little did I know I would find my little red head in Austin. She came home and was named Ms. Murphie. The apple of her daddys eye. Now we are looking for another to add to the "kids". Maybe a red headed male. His name is set at Own (after Tee Tuckers brother in the Books).
I am glad that Y'all made it back safe. The new pictures are great. We love the one you've chosen for your new profile pic. The girls look like they are being really careful with the waves. Did they ever venture out into the water? Bear is just careless around water. Over on Jupiter Beach, he was once washed up onto shore by a wave. It rolled him like so much drift wood, and he just headed back out like nothing happened trying to catch up with Tammey. I'm glad you had a good time and I hope that Filix's was worth the stop for you. We love the place and are so happy that we got to share it with you.
We have not spent much time in that part of Fl. I googled it to see where it was and it looks wonderful. We drove through there once, coming up from Ocala to Panama City, and loved the drive. We are both sight seers at heart and went crazy trying to find parking places for that big eighteen wheeler for all of the antique shops. But even missing out on the antiques the scenery with all of the plantation style homes, beautiful Kentuckish hourse ranches, and small old south towns, is worth the drive.
The only problem we have with Florida is the lack of good Mexican food. Almost every thing there is Cuban which is not bad. But it is really nothing like Mexican. I dought if there is one in the area that you are going to but; if you see a Pollo Tropico stop and try it out. It is a Carribean fast food chain that is really good and healthy. If you are driving down and want some great fresh sea food there is a place in Mobile Al. that you need to try out. It is call Felix's Fish Camp. When you go through the tunnel on I10 in Mobile exit as soon as you come out of the tunnel. The exit says Battleship road, it is US Hwy 90, and it will take you down past the USS Alabama Battleship , past five to ten bait shops and resturants and right back up on to I 10 again. Felix's is the last one on the right and it is well worth the stop. Although, it is a little pricey. Or last stop there we spent about $50.00 on lunch for the two of us, ice tea, no cocktails.
I know you are going to have a great time. Keep a close eye on your pups if you go out in the glades, lots of Gators in that area. Have fun we can't wait to see all of the pictures.
Puppy kisses and stump wags from Edward and Gem. have a good time at the beach and post some pics when you get back!!! oh and sign our guestbook on our profile page!!
