Fountains, Flags, and Blue Sky

We arrived home today after a few days in Fairhope. We're skittish about writing about our travels while we travel, so we wait until we get home.

Fairhope, Alabama was beautiful. The weather was perfect. We spent a lot of time walking around the village.

The people there were delightful. Yesterday, when our legs grew tired, we drove down to the public pier and sat in the shade near the bay. A line of pelicans glided through the air against the breeze.

On the way back to the car, I snapped a picture of the spewing fountain and the flag popping in the wind.

It was a beautiful few days, and I can't think of a better way to celebrate an anniversary.

  1. A refreshing account, Rick. And, now that you've got me thinking about it, there's no sound quite like a flag popping in wind. Excellent phrase.
