Shopping At The Tanger Outlet

Hey ya'll its me again just typing away admiring my newly bought clothes. This weekend a couple of my friends and I headed to the Tanger Outlet stores where clothes are on sale by the dozen. Can you believe that The Gap has most of their clothes for sale off 70%!?!?!
Places like American Eagle and Pac Sun are trying their hardest to get rid of those winter clothes and bringing in the summer clothes, so you could head down there and shop for any season since our weather happens to be a little unpredictable.
While the girls are out shopping, if the guys aren't into sticking around a mall, right down 59 there's a Mossy Oak and an Outdoors store that will keep anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors occupied for hours. And afterwards I would definitely recommend meeting up and having dinner at the Outback Steakhouse that's right by Mossy Oak...their bloomin' onions are amazing on a plate.

The Blog Begins

Hey everyone out there, this is Evan here, just recently added as an official blogger. Sorry if the name confuses you, but yes I am a girl who attends Gulf Shores High as a junior (same grade, same school as Beachin' Brett). I'm just here to tell you about what all there is to do in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach from a local's point of view, I know its probably confusing when you first visit my hometown, but don't worry because I'll be here to tell you where all the tourist's are going, and where all us locals are gonna be hanging out. 
Speaking of those locals, some of them sure are crazy! I was talking to a couple of my friends the other day, and they were actually planning on getting up at 4 AM just so they could go surfing before school, some things I will never understand. But if you have some mad surfing skills, don't be afraid to jump in with them and show off a little, those guys might be crazy but they're super cool...and by the way, don't forget to grab a wet suit before you come down because the water can get pretty cold out there during January, no lie.
    If you can't brave the waves, but wanna see some day light, then do what I do and head to the state park! In Gulf Shores there's a little bridge you can fish off of or in Orange Beach (which is right down the road) you can go for a walk/jog/run/bike ride/or even skate down one of the awesome (and paved) nature trails. It's a great way to get outside and grab some sunshine without getting too cold.
    Talk to ya later!
