Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Just Hanging Around Mobile, Alabama: Semmes Thing, Wintzell's, Bars and a Mardi Gras Parade

JANUARY 7th

We went off looking for Confederate Admiral Raphael Semme's grave and found it. Then had lunch at Wintzell's, a famous oyster place downtown and then hit a couple bars, the Blind Mule (billing itself as Huskie headquarters) and a new place called The Bar (Biggest Deck in Town).

Back to the Baymont and rest before catching bus downtown for the Go-Daddy Mardi Gras parade. A whoile lot bigger than the ones we have at Panama City, Florida. Great fireworks display afterwards and then got to meet Diesel, the NIU huskie mascot.

A real pain finding a bus back. Then went over to O'Charlie's for a night cap.

All day, we were badly outnumbered by Arkansas State fans. Getting "real"tired of their howling and ASU's.
