All aboooarrrddd......the Anti-Lame train!!

So...since I have the best friends EVER, I got a surprise birthday excursion this Saturday, which of course coincided with our Find Fun in Birmingham syllabus. We started our day with a sugar coma induced by Dreamcakes Bakery.  This place would be a wonderful place to take a date on a Saturday afternoon, and you can stroll along the streets (which actually have a variety of fun shops) while eating your dessert.

Our next stop was the new, multi-million dollar Railroad Park downtown. We were extremely impressed with this spacious, fun, exciting new park! Way to go Birmingham! There was a diverse and large crowd, which was nice...because, as we know, the first step to overcoming lame-ness  is attendance. I will let the pictures speak for themselves, but it was in an industrialized yet scenic location and had a very modern feel. Our football passing turned into a full-blown scrimmage when some young kids joined in the fun! All-in-all the Railroad Park brings community, physical activity, and physical beauty to downtown Birmingham! It is also a great way to spend a non-lame Saturday!

Continue the fight against lame-ness!

Dance Par-tay!

In response to one of our loyal followers, we are investigating the dancing scene in Birmingham.


While we take the time to research, we leave you with a little dance routine, choreographed by some Anti-Lame Campaign members.  Enjoy.

Ideas Please!

Hello loyal friends and followers (all 7 of you),

We've started a blog, we're on twitter, now all we need is stuff to talk about!  But, we need some help brainstorming.  What Birmingham topics should the Anti-Lame Campaign confront?  The pitiful guy to girl ratio?  How hard it is to make new friends - and what to do about it?  The music scene?  Nightlife?  Leave us a comment so we can start de-lamifying the city.

Your friends,

Erin, Melanie, Bethany, Melissa, and Laura
