Art...Amazing group of Statue's telling a Story about a Remarkable Woman..Sea Birds, Food & Flowers 

On our short vacation we came across this lovely set of statue's telling us about a remarkable woman ...Marietta Johnson ...and of course I had to sit down and listen to what she had to tell us ..ha! ha! 

Miss Johnson founded a school in 1907 and here she is educating some of the children ...it is in Bronze and so life like ...we loved it ....

All the details in the statues are wonderful ..here you can see the boy is holding a pinecone and Miss Johnson has a small twig with leaves on it resting in the book ....

Here is the plaque that was placed by the statue's explaining what they are about ...

A little way along there was this gorgeous artsy Sea Horse ...so pretty ..standing proud looking over the fishing pier 

Strolling along the fishing pier we found this cheeky chappy ...waiting for a hand out from the fisherman ...and he got some ....he seems to be a regular 

We came across hundreds of Pelicans but most times I didn't have my camera with me so this is the best I could do ..two of them up on their perches ...drying out and scouting the area for more fish 

We had lots of yummy food ...this time I had Cioppino  Scallops, Shrimp,Octopus and Mussels in a wonderful Italian broth with spaghetti and freshly baked ciabatta bread 

In Fairhope whilst we went shopping we saw lots of wonderful flowers ...so pretty 

Danny had Polenta with a lovely Bolognese Sauce with lots of cheese and large chunks of Italian Smoked Sausage ...I had a taste it was just yummy 

Thanks for coming along with me on one of our vacation days out 

Hope you get to have a lovely long weekend vacation or a great trip away 

Happy and safe travels
