The photos showing the oil on the al.com website are disgusting. CBS TV reports from Gulf Shores too, talking with the mayor and businesspeople. The thick oil covering Alabama;s shore is not a pretty sight.
Almost yearly since I moved to Montgomery 12 years ago, I've enjoyed a long-weekend trip to the coast, usually right after the season ends with Labor Day. I can't imagine this mess will be over by then.

And not to be an alarmist, but there's also a post floating around the net suggesting there will be no end to the oil leaking into the Gulf, that BP has essentially killed the Gulf of Mexico.
[UPDATE: When I posted the above link, I wondered about not seeing his theory anywhere in the MSM. This morning I did a Google News search under his name and the word geologist. Not a single MSM return. Anyway...take his theory with a grain of oil-soaked sand if you will. The fact that not a single newspaper has printed his material raises LOTS of questions!]
Here's how I remember my trips to the Gulf beaches. Are these photos the only way to experience this again?
