Gulfport is slowly coming back from Katrina. The marina is a state of the art fixed pier
place. There are towers on every dock
that hold the electrical and power equipment, to put them above the storm
surge. Isaac’s surge covered the docks,
but did not do harm. There are several
nice restaurants within walking distance, and we ate at the Half Shell last
night. Good meal! We are directly across from the Coast Guard
station, and there are two 80 foot cutters docked, with machine guns at the
ready. Is there something I don’t k
now?? We will stay here one more night,
and head to Orange Beach.
