Tolstoy Park in Fairhope

 To much for me to type in, google Tolstoy Park and it will tell the story!!!

We had turned off highway 98 going over to the Scenic 98 and I saw this hut that look like it was trying to grow into a office building,I hollered  STOP you got to go back!!!!

There was a couple taking a picture of this thing, I couldn't see a sign and they went down a couple of steps and went in, so HELLO why not!!!

 

 
 Henry Stuart, barefoot as usual, in the 1940's.

 He made every brick in this place. He finished the hut (His home) in 1926.

 It is only one open room 14 feet wide and 14 feet tall. And I thought I lived in a small place. I live in the Hilton, compared to this. But then again his is Hurricane and Tornado proof!!!!

Treasure At The End Of A Dead End Road!!!!

 Sign says NO OUTLET!!!! So glad we didn't turn around and went to the No Outlet!!!!

 This was one of those OH MY GOODNESS moments!!! There is a Photographer her that had a picture of this boat and I didn't know who took it and had no clue where or if the boat was really here in Fairhope. BUT WE found it!!! The only thing better would be if it was named War Eagle!!!

 This is the Miss Bama and the Crimson Tide docked right next to each other.  How sweet!!!

 This was just laying in a yard on the no outlet road.

The cloudiness in this picture is pouring rain!!!!! We have gotten back to the Fairhope Pier. Lots of the sculptures all around the park!!!

Back to Fairhope Pier for Beautiful Sunset!!!

 We got here a little early and got to enjoy all the boats coming and going!!!

This girl is trying to catch bait fish to fish with.

 There is a rose garden at the Pier and this is just one of the many different varieties!!!

 I know it is blurry but he is 500 miles and I did good to get it in the first place!!!

 Thanks to Tracy for a refresher coarse in Nikon for Dummies 101!!!! I was able to get some pretty color and much better shots!!!!

 Sorry there is so many, but it was beautiful and this is only about a third of the ones I took!!!

Oh yes Super Moon!!!! So glad I got it last night because it has rained all day and total cloud cover right now and it is 5:30, so I think no moon shots tonight unless something major happens..

Gates and Entrance's of Fairhope and Point Clear

I didn't want to boar you to death with 500 Entrances so putting most of them together like this it doesn't seem like so many!! But you can see so of the beautiful way people have to come home too!!!!

New Favorite Restrauant!!!

 Fairhope Fishing Pier!!! This is also what we could see from our table!!! Pretty nice, Table with a view!!! And yes you can see rain on the right hand side of picture. We watched it go all the way across from Mobile!!!

 This was after Dinner seating!!!

 Very busy birds!!

 Waiting for dinner!!! The Birds that is!!! Ha ha

 Beautiful sunset over the Bay!!! Really just going down. We left too early to see it set.

 Over the Pier this cloud caught my attention and it reminds me of the first site of Mt. Rainer!!!

 Meet this young man and his service dog named Tonya!!!! She is blonde and so sweet!!! Just like another one i know!!!! He is a photographer and ask me if I was. Sonny told him a want to be!!! I said no just love to take pictures!!!

 All the rest of the Pictures are from the area they have here on the north side of Pier. A nice beach and play ground for the kids. Geese every where!!! They had to evacuate them last year and now they are back.

Romantic couple watching the sunset!!! No not us!!!
