Second Week at Mobile Christian School

Thur. We had our devo afterward Linda went to paint and I went to the dump to get rid of the carpet.  We pick-up a ditch witch and dug about 200 feet to run a elec. line.  We glued all the pipe and ran a string in it so Mon. they can run the elec. wires.  I then filled all the dirt back into the holes. That night we went back to church for a meeting about dyslexia.  Both of us learned alot and were surprised that so many children have it and do not get tested.

  Fri. we got up and drove with Charles and Janice to Gulf Breeze, Fl.  We went to Fort Pickens a fort from Civil War, WW1 and WW2.

 After driving around the area we ate at Peg Leg Pete's we both had grouper sandwich and it was delicious.  We then drove to Gulf Shore Al.  All of the area on our drive was interesting.

Sat. We got up and went with a Charles and Janice to eat breakfast. After lunch we drove to downtown Mobile.  We were surprised to find a St Patrick,s Parade going on. It was a rainy day and not many people came for the amount of things they threw to people (beads, stuff animals, moon pies, carrots, cabbage, potatoes, and more).

Picture below is the Battle House Hotel 1908.  There was a period of 30 years it was empty luckily the Tiffany glass was not damaged.  It is a beautiful Hotel and I would have loved to see it in it's glory days.
Picture below is redone Fort Conde.   The original fort was taken apart after it was found that it didn't serve a purpose any more and was using good land.  They found the original foundation when the were digging the tunnel under the bay.
