Unsure of all the TV markets for the BP advertisement, but along the gulf coast BP's been braggin' about all the tourism that's visited over the past year. (I'm sure that's part of the BP settlement for the oil spill.) We've watched that advertise since Christmas while at Sunrise, FL. Anyway, when it comes Alabama's turn, the group states "that everyone came to Hangout with us." Well, we visited the Hangout this week just to check it out. We've driven by it many times and it's along the beach bike path. If you're looking for it, it's at the intersection of US 59 and Hwy 182, beach side. If you click on the location link at the bottom of this blog post, you're suppose to get a google map of it. Don't forget to zoom in.
While it wasn't busy while we were there, it looks like a placed that'd be packed during summer and possibly one to avoid during any beach festival (I know - that's heresy down here!) As we walked around, the first thing that came to my mind was Jimmy Buffett's "Magaritaville". (Speaking of Jimmy Buffett; his sister's place, Lulu's, is a pretty nice spot, too!) So here's some pictures to give you a feel for the place. And as the sign says, be nice or go home.
Later, David
