welcome carlos!

Where in Mobile are you at? My wife and I are originally from Mobile, all of our family still lives there, and we come back every now and then. Do you ever make it up to the Steak & Shake on Schillingers? My brother-in law makes it up there sometimes...maybe you've seen his car around....below are some pictures of it.
