The Gulf Shores Adventure - Part 2.5

Tonight I learned a few things. That Proud Mary is really hard to sing Karaoke, that Amy and I are getting old, and that my spray sunscreen didn't get the back of my legs! Amy decided that we needed to go out and sing Karaoke tonight, believe it or not I have never sang Karaoke before. I stared at the crazy book for at least 30 minutes and couldn't decide what to sing. I don't do well in choosing when I have so many choices, plus I couldn't find a song that I felt comfortable enough to get up and sing in front of people. I guess the performer in me wants to get up there and do it right and not just fumble through. Amy finally convinced me to get up and sing Proud Mary with her. We did great until it got to the fast part and we forgot the melody, what I feared would happen, but we had a great time anyway. Then at 9:30 we both decided that we were tired and it was time to go home, the tell tell sign that we are both turning into old farts! Also I discovered the areas I missed with my spray on sunscreen today and it happens to be the back of my thighs up near by my butt. Really, it isn't too bad but this is the first time I have ever pretty much burned my butt! Tomorrow we are going to the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola, then more time on the beach, and tomorrow night we are going to a place called Lulu's which is owned by Jimmy Buffet's sister.

Better get to Lulu's early as the crowd is BIG ! The Hangout has a lot of the same things going on as Lulu's. For more ideas on places to go and what to expect (restaurant reviews) plus lots of ideas of things to do, see http://www.gulf-shores-alabama.net
Have fun...get someone to help w/ the sunscreen next time :o)
