Spent a total of three days in Gulfport, MS. Made visits to the Navy Exchange, Airforce Exchange, and both Commissaries. We loaded up on food stuff for the start of our trip. Made one trip to the casino for the 2 for 1 breakfast buffett and a little bit of slots. Neither one of us won anything, but had fun losing. lol We finally went to the National Cemetery to visit the grave site of our friend Theresa. Three days in Gulfport went by quick. Now off to Lake Charles, LA.
Arrived in Lake Charles Nov 22 and here it is Nov 28 with only one day left before we move on. The weather has been fantastic as we visited with a lot of Doris's family members. My daughter Rae and husband Mike drove down from Virginia and surprised everyone, for it has been many years since she has seen her Grandma, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nieces, and Nephews.

Had two Thanksgiving dinners, one at Chimmie and Tina's and the other at Sam Houston Jones State Park. I think I have put on a couple of pounds in the last week. The family definitely knows how to eat down here and I believe it is a Louisiana thing.

Tomorrow we head to Corpus Christi for two days before traveling to Mission, Texas for the winter. Never been to Mission or actually that south in Texas. Should be interesting. Until the next posting.
