Mobile and its neighbors stood fast against several powerful thunderstorms and multiple tornadoes last Saturday. One of the storms even spawned a water spout in Mobile Bay.
Thankfully, the damages weren’t too bad, and the worst seems to be over. Still, it’s always a good idea to stay alert and prepared for these things.
On a lighter note, everyone was and is still trying to get into the Halloween spirit by attending events like Trunk-Or-Treat and the 6th Annual Witches Ride. We hope you were able to participate in or witness the festivities. The kids had a hoot.
And we’ve got plenty more upcoming events to plan for!
Do you fancy yourself as an artist? Well, there’s another Sip’ N Paint event at Mari Gras Park coming up. Bring your friends or go solo as you get a little tipsy and crank out your next new masterpiece under the stars.
Speaking of getting tipsy, POST is hosting a drag brunch where folks are known to have one too many mimosas. This is a Movember event, and proceeds will go to men’s health-related causes.
Lastly, if you’re a fan of fantasy and romance novels, then you’re undoubtedly familiar with authors Sierra Simone, Emily McIntire, and Piper CJ.
You have a chance to pick their brains over a nice craft beer at the book signing mixer held by The Haunted Book Shop and Oyster City Brewing Company. Who knows? You might even meet your next big romance there.
