Sand Beach, notice the beaches are empty and it's beautiful weather

Well, we haven't traveled very far since our last post. But the good news is, the sick bay is closing!! We are both feeling much better. We stayed in Biloxi while recuperating. Biloxi and Gulfport are other areas which were also hit hard by Hurricane Katrina. All along the beach front are empty lots, all with For Sale signs on them. Lots of casinos still up and running and it looks like they are building/rebuilding more. They had been businesses, condos, homes, all wiped out. The beaches are beautiful, all white soft, sandy beaches. You can walk out for more than 100 yards and still only be up to your knees.

We drove about 10 miles east to Ocean Springs and are now staying in the Gulf Islands National Seashore, Davis Bayou. Beautiful here, and although we knew to expect them, the bugs are terrible!! Bill is getting a lot of use out of his electric fly swatter, his legs are covered with bites. Wonderful place for bike riding and Bill is enjoying flying his helicopter.
