Jim fixed pancakes for breakfast this morning. We left Meridian and drove to Diamondhead, Mississippi. We went to Bob and Pat Harko’s house where we set up the Casita in their driveway. They had picked up a t-shirt in Alaska for Jim and a cap for me at a brewery in Kodiak and since we didn’t go to the Pine Knot Rally we went by to get it. Pat was out of town so we had a nice visit with Bob. We talked awhile and then looked at their Alaska pictures.
We decided to go to a Diners Drive-ins and Dives place called The Shed for BBQ. Bob took us down Highway 90 from Diamondhead through Pass Christian, Bay St. Louis, Long Beach, Gulfport and Biloxi. This area has still not fully recovered from Hurricane Katrina. There are still a lot of empty lots for sale. Most have lonely looking cement slabs. Some on the water by the new bridge in Pass Christian have only partial docks left in the water. But you can see some new construction. It looks much better than when we came by here after Katrina. Along the way there was a beautiful sunset tonight and we snapped some pictures from the car. After eating, we went back to the house and had some wine. Bob made Cherries Jubilee.
