The weather is supposed to get bad tomorrow with predictions of 1-2 inches of snow! If it does, please don’t drive! We don’t have the roads prepared like they do in areas that normally get snow. More importantly, even if you do or think you know how to [...]

Last night we enjoyed watching Alabama win the National Football Championship – Roll Tide!!!!! Today, it is snowing in Birmingham. People in Alabama are good at cheering on their football team.
