We drove by to check out the Fairhope Yacht Club. Nice place, not real big. I called them and asked about joining; $250 plus a "member sponsor" and 3 member references. Seems kinda elitist, but maybe all yacht clubs are like that, I dunno.Oh, we also went by the Eastern Shore Art Center, which was rather cool - they had bunches of wooden bowls on display (alas, I didnt get pix). As we were leaving the center, we noticed what looked like a little castle down the street. I got a few pix of them (there are actually two separate buildings). They look to be someone's home, although the one with the bridge is being worked on.
