I have to say- after some of the coldest, nastiest weather we have had in the deep South in many years- it has been SO unbelieveably beautiful all week! I live on the coast of Alabama and all the winter visitors FINALLY have the weather they came down here for. I think the temp is supposed to reach the upper 70s for the weekend, and the first Mardi Gras parade in Mobile will roll tomorrow night. Can't ask for better!
