Friday's Top Ten
Greetings from Mobile, Alabama, USA!
Top ten things I've experienced so far on this trip that are different from Texas:
10. Truck zones
9. Wicked road layouts
8. Pretend nachos
7. Beautiful bayou country
6. A peanut butter cookie the size of Texas
5. Lots of law enforcement working the interstate
4. Magnolia blossoms everywhere
3. Disturbing odors from time to time
2. The Mississippi
And the #1 thing I've experienced so far on this trip that is different from Texas:
1. Different Southern accents

Have fun and tour the submarine while you're in Mobile.

Have a great trip!
Basically, here's the guts of it.
The cookie was scrumptious.
No submarine - a little claustrophobic.
Pretend Nachos - all the ingredients ... none of the flavor. And NO jalapenos!
Accents - It always amazes me how different they are. From the East Texas 'yay-ess' to South Carolina's 'Chawrl-stin'.
Southpaw - Those nachos had tortillas, chili, salsa, fresh tomatoes, sour cream, and guacamole. But the chili wasn't the same flavor as you find in Texas - for those of you elsewhere, if you have an On the Border in your area, they've got it. The salsa and guacamole were also lacking in flavor. And there were no jalapenos in sight!
Laura - Yes!
We're at home now. Watch for a post tomorrow!
How in the U.S.A. does anyone NOT put jalapeños on their nachos? I thought it was required! :)
