heart of dixie's home to me

well, rosemary did this great post about how she misses southern ohio, and in my trade of trades, i'm posting about how much i miss hell's belles, highway 280, and even the summit. (that's right y'all, i miss a mall.) i miss linca-lonca road (though that's georgia), i want mayhaw jelly on my biscuit, i'm fairly sick of bagels, and i want lemon pound cake on the deck looking at the hawks and wondering about snowy ending.
to wit:
i miss home. (southern pines shelby county!!!!)

so, in the honor of our great rosemary, a little humpday honor to our sleepy sweet home alabama. (roll tide roooolll)



Moonlight and magnolias, starlight in your hair
All the world a dream come true
Did it really happen, was I really there
Was I really there with you

We lived our little drama, we kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama that night
I can't forget the glamour, your eyes held a tender light
And stars fell on Alabama last night

I never planned in my imagination, a situation so heavenly
A fairy land that no one else could enter
And in the center, just you and me, dear
My heart beat like a hammer, my arms wound around you tight
And stars fell on Alabama last night

Yes, we lived our little drama
We kissed on the dunes so white
And stars fell on Alabama
Last night


mmm... birmingham!

and naked vulcan, our crowning glory:
