The Alabama Coast


The Roving Cats are back. Thelma (that's me) and Louise (my sister) are traveling again. This time our staff has taken us south to the Alabama Coast. We are in Summedale, Alabama. Just east and south of Mobile, about 17 miles north of Gulf Shores, AL, which is actually on the Gulf of Mexico.

The weather is FINE. Today it was 73ยบ. A bit cloudy and windy, but warm. I like warm. The rest of the week it will be sunny and in the high 60's.

Many people have asked about our newer coach. So I asked my male staff, Loren, to take some pictures. To show you our new home on wheels. You would think he would pick up a little before he took the pictures. But you know men. . . .



This shot is of our campground. There are 97 sites. Each site is about 40 feet wide and 75 feet deep. Very large compared to most campgrounds. We have been here a week. I'm not sure when we will move on.



This is our spot. Trees on both sides for shade. You can see the new bedroom slide out in the back of the coach. This add some needed room to get dressed.



The bedroom has lots of hanging closet space and Sharon and Loren each get two large drawers. Why our staff needs so much space is beyond anything the Louise and I can understand. I mean come on. What is with all the clothes?



There is even more storage space on each side of the closet and drawers at the foot of the bed. Loren told me he is planning to put out litter box in one of the cabinets at the foot of the bed. But that will have to wait till he gets us home.

Nice big queen size mattress. I really love the Sleep Number mattress.



And a TV in the bedroom.



Next come the shower. Full size for the staff. They do tend to smell if they don't bath regularly. Once again, I'm not sure I totally understand showers. I just find a comfortable spot, and clean myself. Usually in the front window. Some times I get Louise to help me with the hard to reach parts.









This is the Living – Dinning – Galley Rooms. With a slide on each side, it gives us felines a lot of space. Not that we take up much room. But it is nice to have the space, so we can run, jump, and generally drive Loren crazy. Once again, You would think he would have clean up the mess before he took the pictures. I will have to have a stern talk with him when I am done writing this blog.

Actually I am done, till later have a Cats Life.
