The best kept secret in America...

This topic is a little off the ordinary of my blog, but it's a place that's very dear to my heart.
As many of you know my family has been going to Orange Beach, AL for a long time now. It's a vacation spot, a place to recharge the batteries and a place my dad says will add 10 years to his life.
All of us need a place we enjoy going to relax and to get away from the every day hustle and bustle that we so often find ourselves in much of our lives here on this Earth.

I was recently was there for Memorial Day weekend. It was a great weekend. I participated in the Color Run, went to the Lady Antebellum concert and attended the Flora Bama Worship on the Water service on Sunday. If you have never been to the Wharf to a concert it's a must go. It's a unique little venue where you don't have a bad seat in the house. I've been to several there and always look forward to seeing who is performing while I'm there. The Flora Bama is mostly known as a party hang out, but they put on one heck of a praise and worship service on Sundays. I wish I lived down there so I could go every Sunday. It's so refreshing to go to church where everyone speaks to everybody they don't even know, they don't care what you look like and you walk away on fire for the Lord.

As I was driving home on Monday morning, I thought to myself what a great place this is. I've met so many neat people that live down there and have met some awesome people who own condos where we have one. If you've never been to "LA" Lower Alabama, you need to plan a vacation there soon. Great food, friendly people and beautiful beaches to soothe the soul. As my good friend and I always say when we are down there....."TITL" This is the life!!  Here's to OBA.....I hope to live there one day!
It truly is the best kept secret in America...And yes there is a beach in Alabama!
