    I second that. Mobile, Alabama. Home of the first Mardi Gras. (This picture is Azalea Trail Maids from Mobile, Alabama in the third annual Toys on Parade in Santa Ana )

    Birmingham was childhood home to my brother in law and his cousin Patsy Neal. She grew up, changed her name to Fannie Flag and penned Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Cafe. Without Birmingham, we wouldn't have the movie Fried Green Tomatoes. The secret's in the sauce, so they say.

    Vulcan Statue, the world's largest iron statue stands proudly in Birmingham.

    FHN, is this a drag queen parade? Cool! We have those too. Only our drag queens have more fashion sense.

    Believe it or not, we don't all really dress like that. The Azalea Trail Maids are in demand all over the country. I hear they dressed in regular clothes at least once, to have this picture snapped.....> Azalea Trail Maids I remember them from the parades when I was a child.

    Yes, it's gorgeous, the view. The city is lovely from any view, but from there it is heavenly.
