Good luck...just make sure to bring your own job and a sack full of $100 bills--or just bring a Penske rental truck full of $1,000 bills and you can forget the job.

And that government cheese is good stuff! Much better than many places have!

...also the bridge is very picturesque with a lovely breeze during the summer!

ah, recollections of a memorable gathering, under the bridge on a warm summer eve... Shelly with a lovely gum'mint cheese fondue, warming in a slightly dented hubcap, and firm bits of dog food, both canned AND dry, mind you, on bent wire hangers for dipping....  how we laughed, and mocked those tied down to a mundane grind, such as minding a website.... selling real estate.... what golden (lab) days....

Best of luck and godspeed to you Heartbren!
As much as the nay sayers say... this area definitely has a lot to offer... there is a reason why we all choose to live here after all! 
And if I were to have to live under a bridge... I would much prefer the 331 bridge to any bridge dealing with blizzard conditions... too much worry about cars sliding off and ruining dinner!

Thanks.  I totally agree with you.  I've been there several times (no under the 331 bridge) and fell in love with it and the people.  :wub:

I just got finished moving my son from NOLA to Gulf Shores, he is so happy to be out of there.  I fish under the 331 bridge sometimes, it is a lot better than the bridge over 90 and I10 in NOLA.
