Lighted Boat Parade

Our 2 month stay in Foley AL is coming to an end.   We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will again make it a winter destination in the future.   One of the last events we attended with a group from the resort was dinner at Tacky Jacks to watch the lighted Christmas boat parade.   The restaurant is  located on the inter-coastal waterway making it a great viewing location.   There were about 30 privately owned boats decked out in Christmas lights and other holiday themed decorations.   First, second and third place awards are given in three categories:   boats over 33 feet, boats under 33 and sailboats.   Entry is free and I think it is prestigious to be a winner.   











After 10 years of use our camera finally died.   We ordered another one which arrived the day before this event, so the pictures are not great.   We need to practice night shooting a little more.  Some of the boats trolled nice and easy and others thought they were in race, so some of the photo's I couldn't use here because they were blurred.   But you get the idea.   It was something different for us and we had fun.

Hope all is well!
