Monday

We are psyched to get to Bella Terra to start our vacation. The temperature this morning was 61 degrees.  It was misting when we took off and we learned there was a storm south of us in Birmingham, AL.  However, we only had occasional light showers.  I finally saw the first palm tree in Robertsdale just miles before Foley.  The high for today was 75ish but it dropped in the upper 60s with the rain. 
We arrived at Bella Terra about 4:15 this afternoon.  We were welcomed by our friend Dick Hebbe.

It is a gated community with individually owned lots.  Leveling jacks must be blocked to prevent rust spots on the concrete pads.  There is curb side trash pick up daily.  Pets must be on a leash but there is a dog park.  The swimming pool/jacuzzi is open from 9 am to 10 pm.  The resort also hosts weekly events.  We signed up for the Dophin and Dine lunch and cruise tomorrow. 

The clubhouse is open to guests so we joined Dick and Judy Hebbe, Julee and Bob Mansfield, Ross and Mary Swenson there for cocktails and hors de hourves.  After seeing our mutual friends we all retreated to our respective motorhomes for the evening.
