in Chit-Chat
This has a little to do with weight and fitness, but mostly chit chat. Mobile Alabama has Mardi Gras and Great Beaches to get in shape for. I would love to hear about other places. Where do you live? What fun acitivities, carnivals, festivals, amusements or traditions does your town / state have. I might want to plan a road trip and visit some of these fun places. I love hearing about other places. (I have not lived many diffrent places). What is FUN TO DO IN YOUR TOWN???????????????

    My favorite in Texas is the Hill Country rivers and the Devil's River.

    I'd say the Devils, upper Nueces, Frio, Medina, Comal, San Marcos, and Guadalupe are the prettiest (in order).

    Oh... lets see here.
    Starting from the South:
    We have Key West (remember to do the Duval Crawl)
    Heading North, we have Miami Beach with some of the smallest Bikinis around.
    You can continue North and re-live Spring Break in Ft Lauderdale (if you went to college in the 80's)
    As we continue our Northern drive, we can stop in Palm Beach, the island of the super rich.
    You can make a detour to the North and view the beauty of the Florida Everglades or, head up to Daytona Beach.
    There is the pit stop in Orlando with more theme parks then I can remember.
    And finally, near the Northern tip, you can find St Augestine which is the oldest continuously inhabited European established settlement in the continental United States.
