Despite dark skies and drizzle on our first day outside Mobile, the rain slacked up in time for our visit to Bellingrath Gardens. We just missed the peak of azalea blooms, but one could easily see how magnificent the gardens would be had we been a week earlier. If you should plan a visit, the 2nd or 3rd week in March is best for peak color. We were there the 4th week.

Excellent pictures. I was in Mobile last September and missed the opportunity to visit the garden. Too bad!

Thanks so much, francosp! Maybe you can plan a visit for early March next year--the azalea plantings are stunning and I am just sorry that we were past peak on our visit.

Very nice images Diane, reminded me of some plantation homes we visited in the south some 20+ years ago - great memories!

So happy to see you came across some of the images from my recent trip to the Gulf Coast. To have gardens like those at Bellingrath as part of your home would be an aesthetic's dream...and a treat to visit for those of us who don't.

As a teenage boy, this place was not on my normal " hit list ". However, I took my mother there on several occasions.
A company my father owned had a long-term contract with Ingalls Shipbuilding over in Pascagoula, MS. We lived in Pascagoula from 1952 through 1959. Both of my mother's brothers were doctors and had their practices in Mobile. Her father had several businesses and liver over near Foley, Alabama...where he was also the Mayor of the town.
I have followed your series about the the Gulf Coast with interest. I am very familiar with a lot of what you saw and have written about.

Those who post on UHH do so for many different reasons. I share my travels to provide inspiration/ideas to others who may be planning trips of their own--but it is always most rewarding when someone has had a chance to go down memory lane as a result of seeing familiar places through my lens. Glad you have enjoyed the series, Tom!
