As I was growing up we use to Conoe down the Perido River our half way mark was some steel pipes in the river, is this the sane place as this fire? That was back in the good ol days I grew up camping on up the river on the Alabama side it was so nice back then. Now I don’t think u can even get back in there Its all gated up and the place where we rented Conoes we went there a few years ago and they were closed.
I’m grateful to the Molino Fire Dept. for their efforts. They do a great job here and deserve some praise and help when we can!
The Pipes and Fillinjims landing, are two of the few places, where people on a shoe string budjet, can take their children, for outdoor receation. An alcohol free enviroment, without demented morons, running amok. I hope these idiots do not force closure on the few remaining, family oriented accesses to Perdido river.
