Welcome from Robertsdale Al. You can take the backroads to Pirates Cove from Perdido Beach.

Hey Sonny, i have a friend that lives in Robertsdale, he plays lead guitar in a little band we have, and i do go to Pirates Cove every now and then. I live down Hwy 97 in Perdido Beach. Thanks for the welcome.
Wouldn't be Charlie D would it? If so he's been my neighbor for about 30 years. He's got a Harley dresser.

His name is John Bedsole. He use to have a car repair shop at one time,but now he works for someone else in the car business. Me and some friends are going to Thunder Beach in April, you ever go?

I haven't been in a while. We camped at a place called Raccoon River right off the beach. All the events were at one place when I went. Going to the antique motorcycle show this Sunday on Dauphin Island. Catching the ferry from Ft. Morgan.
