We never imagined we would be riding for 486 miles in the pouring down rain & it taking us 12 hours to get there LOL All we could do was laugh about it though & everyone was really good sports about it. We arrived at some part in AL & Timmy decided he would go into the next Wal-Mart & get him a rain suit. When we stopped he was soaking wet from head to toe lol He grabbed some pants, went into Wal-Mart, got a shirt, towel & rain suit. He changed clothes and we headed back out again.
I don't have any pics of the ride down but here's the first one that we took when we first got there, you can tell we look tired lol
There were already a ton of bikes there when we arrived so it was neat looking at some of them but honestly we could have had just as much fun without the bike rally.
We decided to go to Hammer Head Fred's to eat supper.
Tim & Gayla
us :)
Pat, he was missing his Rhonda
This little man was too funny. He is 74 yrs ago & we all thought he was in his 60's.
After supper we rode up and down the strip just a bit & then we took a walk on the beach, it was so nice & peaceful. I took my shoes off & started rolling up my jeans and they all said really I'm not doing that but within a few seconds they all did lol
Friday morning we got up and got something to eat then rode to the Verizon store since my phone wouldn't work, they wouldn't allow me to get a phone without paying full price so I was without it all weekend. We then came back to where all the vendor booths were and strolled through several of them. We decided we would eat lunch at Margaritaville and goodness those nachos
We had some when we went to Vegas & these were just as good, Timmy & Gayla ended up getting some too and it actually kept us full for the rest of the day.
We then rode with Brian, Cindy & Pat to the other vendor area

All colors, shapes & sizes of bikes
This handsome guy was standing outside Dick's Last Resort Restarant
Once we got back to the hotel we decided we would hang out in the hot tub for a while & then it was time for bed. I don't think there was a night we went to bed before midnight & we were up at 5:15 every morning so it was a fun filled mini vacation.
Michael & I watched the sun rise & it was breath taking.
Timmy loved going through this tunnel, it took us from one side of the road to the other but I think he loved the echo from his bike lol
My love :)
We found a really nice lady to take our pic and yes we were the only 2 people on the beach that had on jean & boots but hey we were bikers for the weekend :)
Gorgeous puffy white clouds, one of the reason Michael & I love riding so much, you get the full view of God's creations!
Since it was raining we got both of these pics on the way home, yes Michael was kind enough to turn around and go back toward FL just so I could take this pic lol
We left Panama City Beach, FL and headed up to Newnan, GA to visit with some friends Allen & Teresa Beiriger and oh my goodness we had so much fun!
We got way better service at the Beiriger Hotel than we could even begin to imagine! She had all kinds of food waiting on us and the spread was way more than we could all eat. We laughed so much and really could have stayed there another night because we had so much fun. It's definitely a trip we will make again.
After Thursday's rain we couldn't have ask for better weather and we were all blessed to arrive back home safely.
