I believe this is a 1793 map of Mexico before the Louisiana purchase and California etc became part of the US. Even Florida was part of Mexico! If Trump researched his Mar Lago land deed it will likely show it was once mexican territory from a mexican land grant from spain. : )
I've spent most of my 67 years along the Gulf of Mexico. I have enjoyed the Texas coast from the Sabine River to the Rio Grande. My favorite place is South Padre Island.
Big, bad man set up the corporate take over of our once idealic state back then
Full fruition now. I've been here my whole life, yet I have never felt least welcome that now.
Been here, this time, since '87. Property owner since '76. It started with Scarborough, Jeff Miller was okay, but Matt Gaetz MAGAted the district.
The current governor hasn't made things any better.
there's beautiful beaches all along the Gulf of Mexico, from Padre Island in Texas, all the way to Key West in Florida. Just beautiful Gulf of Mexico beaches.
As Google removes names like “Gulf of Mexico,” what else have they changed? Can we still trust them? Are internationally recognized names no longer official? What if we fly to the wrong place—will Google compensate us? 😀
Just don't come now. Too many tourists/college kids on Spring Break. Today I made, probably, my last trip down the beach hwy. until after Labor Day. October thru mid March is great time.
I have visitted the GULF OF MEXICO. Fishing & kayaking are fantastic in the GULF OF MEXICO. Camping along the GULF OF MEXICO is wonderful. Everyone should visit the GULF OF MEXICO.
Our beaches here in Gulf Shores are beautiful. But beware. There is flesh-eating bacteria in the Gulf and it's in the sand along the entire coast. No matter what else anyone tells you.
My heart is breaking for our beautiful country! If you want to do something but aren't comfortable or close to any protests, please don't buy anything on Wednesdays! Make it a regular thing, every Wednesday! You can show up by not showing up! Women have so much economic power, let's use it together!
Remember he also ‘joked’ about never having to vote again!!! Still think it’s a fkn joke? You think this fkn Nazi piece of shit is going to allow you to vote him out???? You’re dreaming fkn dreaming
When I lived in Fort Myers, we used to go to Fort Myers Beach. The Gulf was always so beautiful. The sunsets were spectacular! Sadly, FMB took a major hit from Ian.
Mia, we live in Pensacola and my wife was taught & practiced TM from/with your sister.
Of course, you can visit her just up the road from us, but you’re invited to come stay with us here anytime. 😍
We Love You!

Siesta Key (Sarasota) on the Gulf of MEXICO, is stunning. Vacationed there for 25+ years. This is one of the many, many beautiful sunsets I witnessed there.
What would happen if on return from Mexico and the ICE agent at the airport asks, where you traveling from, you say, from Veracruz Mexico, it’s on the Gulf of Mexico. Do you get sent to Guantanamo?
It’s bluer in fall - through say late April. Then the winds change and the waters from the Brazos River and others change the water to a green/browner color which carries loads and loads of nutrients. So, if you like gulf shrimp, oysters, snapper, etc. you want that water in the summer. Still fun!
I think people would be more outraged at the name change if the Gulf of Mexico was actually a nice place. But the fact of the matter is the Gulf is America's toilet. The Gulf of America? Yes, it's appropriate for the US to own its shit.
And just recently able to use after being slammed 4times in 2 years by lethal hurricanes…poor Gulf of Mexico has been polluted …hope the bacteria levels have gone down by now
I’m there now, so I’m calling it the Gulf of Fran. Come visit - it can also be the Gulf of Mia! Oh, and no more hurricanes - I’ve got the Sharpie all ready for the next hurricane season.
I really feel for you. I used to go down to the Port St. Joe / Cape San Blas area every year for a couple of weeks. I love that area, and I really like the people too. It's very sad that so many caught that MAGA bug.
My home Mia. Pensacola, FL; raised on the beach. After being widowed in 2012; moved back to the beach, lived there until my Mazda (Red w/copper highlights) faded to pink! LOL! It only took 10 years. Same car today and only 50K miles on it.
You will never want to leave.🌊🌊🕊️☀️👙💨

Or sargassum season.
Or tar ball season.
Or worst of all, duck lip season.
Full fruition now. I've been here my whole life, yet I have never felt least welcome that now.

The Guld coast in FL and TX is also pretty but I won't spend my tourism $$ there right now.

Pollution is already a major issue in the GoM but now that there is no EPA it will become a dead zone im a decade
Maybe Trump actually had a moment of foresight when he “renamed” it….

For a man, and party, who hates the trans community it is sure weird that he gets hung up over what people call the gulf...

One the Gulf is MEXICO
And it is beautiful
Just search for Gulf of Mexico T-shirts. A lot if places sell those and Denali shirts too!
People better hurry if you want one- i got it on Amazon before the regime makes them disappear
My opinion
The best time to visit is late September-early October
Destin, Orange Beach, Seaside all great places
Gota stop by Flora-bama
🙏🏽💙🙏🏽
Cost of living in Paradise! 😍
I haven’t been over there in a while but last time I saw it, it was long ways from being back to normal.
You will never want to leave.🌊🌊🕊️☀️👙💨
I love Canada!! 🇨🇦
The history too, with so many sad stories and opportunity to rise above thd terror in peace and unity.
The region has great opportunity in these times to realign with a growing global civility against overlords of instability.
