Gulf Coast Vacation Recommendations Blog Hop

It might already be the beginning of August, but in my opinion the best time to visit the Gulf Coast is just around the corner. Late summer and early fall are magnificent on the white sandy shores of the Gulf. As I mentioned in my post about Ways to Help the Gulf Coast, this post is dedicated to helping you plan your family vacation to help support the communities affected by the BP oil spill. The restaurants, shops, and rental companies are hurting and many of them run the risk of going out of business. The best possible way you can help, is to pack your bags and go for a vacation. Go for a long weekend or go for two weeks! Thank you in advance for supporting my home and your backyard!
