Going Deep South, Going Down...

So, after a relatively uneventful couple of flights, (in Economy, oh how fallen I feel!!!!) I arrive in Birmingham, the one without the Bull Ring, that is.

And Hagrid the cat seems to want to invade my bedroom.

And I think I frightened one of the other cats during the night when I went for a pee. Silly thing shouldn't have been sleeping in the litter tray.

So this is the South. Hmmm...

Yep!
Alabama is about as Southern, in the social sense, as you can get. They put the hick in hiccup.
Good folk, though.
Hope ya have fun!

You're getting a harsher taste of it than I. I've only been to the Chapel Hill/Durham area of NC, sort of the Berkeley of the South. Though the subtropical weather was hard to get used to, to say nothing of everyone smoking everywhere in restaurants, it didn't really freak me out.

Though, I tells ya, Provo was culture shock in extremis. But you already knew that.
