Florida’s Gulf Coast
We followed Florida's Gulf Coast through the National Seashore and through beautiful small beach towns. Our stop in Crystal River was fantastic.

We wanted to spend a few weeks on the Gulf Coast, but the weather didn't cooperate. Instead, we headed east following the coast, exploring along the way.
On our neverending quest to find the perfect gyro, Founaris Brothers, in Pensacola, Florida, scored in our top five. It was a lovely Valentine's dinner treat.
We spent two days exploring the San Antonio Missions. They were strikingly beautiful, inspiring the reverence they deserve.

We got back on the road to enjoy a visit to Enchanted Rock, find a castle, and spend a few days at two state parks, one with a waterfall and one on a lake.
We spent a month on the ranch in Texas Hill Country. It was a fantastic month of beautiful skyscapes, entrancing wildlife, good food, and the best company.
My favorite soup is beer cheese soup. I made some from scratch and it was delicious.
I decided to make shrimp gumbo even though I was intimidated. Overall, I was pleased with the results.
