THIS POST IS NOT YET COMPLETE
We went back to the state park on St. Joseph Peninsula for a bike ride on Feb 16, our last full day in Port St. Joe. We really like this area and hope we can return soon. The next day we drove to Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores, Alabama. My first time in this state. There was a road closure close to the park for a Mardi Gras parade. We could just see a bit of the crowd driving by the end of the parade route, and there were thousands of people. According to the park ranger, public schools get the week of Mardi Gras off down here, and then a couple weeks later they get another week off for spring break.
Gulf State Park is really nice. And really big. This morning, we started the day with a bike ride on a couple of the 28 miles-worth of trails in the park. We ate breakfast al fresco in what would become a 77 degree day. In the afternoon we a dolphin/sunset cruise on Portage Creek and Wolf Bay. We did see several dolphins but they were up and down so fast that we couldn’t get any good pics.
