Well we made a quick pit stop in Pensacola before heading off to Galveston. Styx River RV Resort to be exact, which is actually in Alabama, 30 minutes from Pcola.
And as always there was fun to be found. We met up one night with Belinda and her sister Angela [AKA Oodie] It started slow, we had dinner (great quesadillas by Belinda) and then penned up the Puggles and headed out. First stop was the Islander on Pensacola Beach, followed by the Break, and finally to the Tiki bar at The Hampton Inn. Our buddy Anthony was tending bar that night and he always hooks us up, and he did not disappoint. Whatever rum drink he gave us was STRONG! And got us, well, let’s say “loopy”. So that was my last for the night. He was closing so we waited for him and went to Flounder’s and to Bamboo Willies. Shots and beer were in abundance, every time I turned around the girls were doing another shot.
So finally we headed home after getting a jump to start Belinda’s car. Allegedly I left the headlights on [whoops]. We made it back to Angela’s but not after someone, who will remain nameless, threw up outside and inside the car. While I packed up the dog’s I heard someone laughing, apparently Jinjer escaped her pen and went into Belinda’s room on her bed and pooped. I felt so bad and cleaned it up quickly. We apologized and then headed back to the coach. It was 4:30 a.m. when we finally got to bed.
The next morning we had to check out by noon, which would seem no problem normally but we were tired from the night before and it was almost 100º outside. I got up at 9:00 and by 1:00 I got us ready to head out to Galveston. But it was no even 5 miles down the road when I had to stop the coach at a rest area and sleep for a few hours, 3 hours to be exact. At which point I felt much better and we were off for great state of Texas. Sharon got a phone call from Angela (aka Oudie) and Sharon listened for a bit and then started uncontrollably, she finally stopped enought o start apologizing for something that happened the night before, she put her on hold for a second and turned to tell what happened: Angela stated that “I woke up this morning to a nasty smell in my room, I looked around. ‘What is that smell’ I asked. Then I found it. Apparently Jinjer may have pooped on Belinda’s bed, but she wiped her butt on my PILLOW!!”. We burst out laughing together hysterically, the image of her discovering that was hilarious. I felt bad, but come on, that is funny stuff!
We arrived at 1:30 in the morning at our destination of Galveston and it was so dark we had no idea what it looked like on the island but there we lots of mosquitoes, and I mean tons. This place did not get off to a good start. And it seemed warm hot still, even in the middle of the night. I could not wait to go to sleep and see what this island will have in store for us…
