Ocean Springs, Mississippi - Saturday July 14th

After a 5+ hour drive south down the entire length of the state of Mississippi we reached the Gulf of Mexico!

No complaining or arguing, as long as you don't "poke" the "beasts"
Ocean Springs was quite close to the landfall of Hurricane Katrina.  The worst winds and the largest surge is always on the east side of the storm.

Red circle is Ocean Springs...


The house we are staying in is called "The Beach House" and it more than lives up to it's billing.  

 It is beautiful both inside and out.  
The saltwater pool is a very warm 88 degrees...
The view from the edge of the beach...
Our "hike" to the beach is about 25 feet and has friendly paving stones to lead the way...
View from the beach, looking back at our house...
Emma's place...
The view from the covered porch
