Tri-State BBQ Festival!!!!
Each year, our city holds a TRI-State BBQ Contest.. yes, 3 states compete - AL, GA, FL.  You pay $5.00 to get in and taste all the bbq (for free) and then vote for your favorite !!

This year, our friend and her parents came to visit.
(Look how Jordan TOWERS over them -- lol)

I Love the names of these competitors "Big Papa's" !

These were my favorite.... nachos covered with bbq, sauce, cheese, and jalepenos- free! YES!

"Smoke Me Tender"-- lol

YUM - Brisket !

House of Flames! 

"Smell My Butts ".... bwhahhahahahahhaaaaaa!

Here we have "Team Fat Boys"!....  I ended up voting for them.  BBQ chicken, BBQ brisket, BBQ ribs, BBQ beef, BBQ pork, baked beans, cole slaw, sliders, roll ups, lemonade, brownies.... need I say more ?!

Look! A ferris wheel!!

Look! Mrs. Piggy's grandmother !

We all had a great time !

Oreo's favorite candy is by far the butterscotch Dum Dum.
(look how she holds it between her paws ... too cute)
Wasting Time.
So, this is what we do while waiting in traffic.

 
 
I spose it's better than picking our noses.

Downtown City Fest....
Each year our city holds a "Fest" downtown, where cyclists compete and the onlookers eat! (I'm an onlooker... just sayin')

since our city is considered the peanut capitol of the world, we have peanut statues all around town.  Here's one pointing to the downtown area.

Oooooo, look!  Cyclists!

I thought this was cute !  It's a wall that's put up infront of construction.  It says " What the world calls an end, the master calls a beginning" ... cute.

Another one of our city's appeal, is it's murals depicting the city's history. Not quite sure what's going on herre ??  Prohibition?? LOL



Oooooo, look!  Food!  It's actually gumgo.  They had a gumbo cook off where we got to taste 5 different types of gumbo and then vote for our favorite.



Had I known that the last one I tasted was cooked with crawfish and oysters ....  I wouldn't have eaten it last -- UGH!  The aftertaste was .... fishy???

Local entertainment while we strolled around eating gumbo and seeing the sites.

Ooooooo, Look!  It's Jordan in a rare picture taking moment !!


Oooooo, Look!  Funnel Cakes !

We all had a great time... true family entertainment --- with dogs allowed :-)
HAIL ON EARTH....
So, one weekend, we were just sitting around minding  our own business when...

it started hailing ---  HAILING in Alabama, in April!

And, of course, Jordan & I were out in it -- LOL !
