Saturday the 16^th, we’re opening up the outside to benefit Bama Bully Rescue. Homewood has declared that our property inhabits an “entertainment zone.” That means – and forgive my rudimentary understanding of the designation – that we can do certain things within in the zone that we cannot do outside of the zone. What are those fantastical newly allowed experiences we can suddenly avail ourselves of, you might ask?

Not really sure. I’m assuming there’s a list somewhere if you want to get into the nuts and bolts of it, but we are sure that we can now have a band outside. So, we’re gonna. A really good one.

What She Said, will play from 3-7, serving up “raw soulful sounds of Blues, Americana and Southern Rock.” Come spend the first Saturday of 2024 that can claim an extra hour before the sun goes down with pizza, great music, and if you want, a beer, some wine, or a cocktail. We’re setting up an outdoor bar to make the occasion that much more luxurious.

And! And, it’s for a cause. Bama Bully Rescue does laudable things. From their website: “We work with animal shelters to rescue pit bull type dogs who are overlooked for adoption and therefore at risk for euthanasia, and pull them for placement in foster care.” They’re a volunteer-run organization and they rely on your help to carry out the mission.
