While it isn't the best as a number of words got 'chopped off' due to cropping, this does serve as my reminder for this year's FAFM photos.

Zydeco music emerged in Louisiana in the 1920s–30s and gained wider recognition in the 1950s. With lively accordion and washboard rhythms, it invites dancing and celebration. The name likely comes from the Creole phrase "Les haricots sont pas salés" ("The snap beans aren’t salty"), referring to hard times.
Zydeco fills the Deep South during Mardi Gras, also known as Carnival. In 2025, Mardi Gras falls on March 4, with festivities running from January 6 to March 4, peaking in the final two weeks.
We enjoyed a Feb. 16 parade and zydeco band in Fort Walton Beach—great music and plenty of beads!

I am guessing there are lots of pedestrians. There is a daycare here.
Xing signs are often used in areas without intersections where pedestrians need to cross the road to access major establishments like schools or hospitals. This would be important here for walkers to deliver children to and from this daycare program.

Sitting atop a mountain in the Southern Appalachians is Wolf Mountain Vineyards and Winery. This 30-acre estate is producing a variety of outstanding grapes within an hours drive of Atlanta!
Wolf Mountain Vineyards and Winery is simply amazing. It stands tall 1,800 feet in North Georgia! It began operations in 1999. We enjoyed the breathtaking view looking over the venue and hills. We did flights of wine that rivaled those from the Nappa Valley.
W Whimsically: In a whimsical way; unusual and strange in a way that might be funny or annoying.
V Valiantly: In a fearless manner.
The goal is to get the kite UP! It took very little effort to get this kite in the air! What a fun thing for the family to do on the beach! Each takes turns holding the line!
Other UP concepts: this high rise is going UP into the sky! Inside the elevator verses steps will take a person UP! The cost may go UP for rental of those top floors, too!!!! People are looking UP!
It is interesting that throat characteristics can help identify a bird! This is a White-Throated Sparrow! I am THANKFUL for this new bird feeder because it has helped me learn to identify several birds that visit our home! Sparrows have always been hard to identify as they are so small. The closeup view helps!
U Unexpectedly: In a way that is not expected.
T Triumphantly: In a way that suggests you have achieved a victory or feel happy because of achieving a victory.
