It's not quite as far south but we have the Gulf right here and it really helps on those days when you just need a beach fix. This is our 2nd year here and we really like it.Gail Houlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04514395566282599562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-35150505499954848252012-12-10T10:20:29.405-06:002012-12-10T10:20:29.405-06:00What a great day.

I have a hard time staying anywhere very far away from the water. That's at least one nice thing about being in Florida for the winter, you can stay pretty close to the water in a lot of different place. But I might like to try Texas and South Padre. Only in Texas, cowboys on the beach!Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-73085217718191811852012-12-10T09:40:11.699-06:002012-12-10T09:40:11.699-06:00how about a national championship ring to go with ...how about a national championship ring to go with the trophy?heyduke50https://www.blogger.com/profile/14927304490275027002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-47246169795665309162012-12-10T09:30:08.232-06:002012-12-10T09:30:08.232-06:00You are right, while we were researching the RGV w...You are right, while we were researching the RGV we were surprised by the distances.The BooneDockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17554856897561402620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-15332681548777519472012-12-10T08:51:22.733-06:002012-12-10T08:51:22.733-06:00South Padre Island is on our list of winter destin...South Padre Island is on our list of winter destinations someday, and Port Aransas as well!

You really should try Dirty Al's restaurant, we always had great food.<br /><br />One thing about staying right on the coast, we found our rig was corroding and rusting on any exposed metal !!<br /><br />The beach seems to recharge our internal batteries ...<br /><br />Have fun ...
