Don't Miss the AW Mardi Gras Extravaganza!

We've got another AW deadline fast approaching, and nobody wants to miss a parade, now, do they?
It’s Carnival time or Mardi Gras time in Louisiana . This year the season is long – going from Jan 6 (Twelfth night) to March 8 (Fat Tuesday – day before Ash Wednesday). Since the Accretionary Wedge is suppose to be a carnival of blogs I think it is only fitting the wedge should have a parade of the blogs. I’m willing to be the captain of this parade.

The theme will be “Throw me your ‘favorite geologic picture’ mister” Lets have the floats (submissions) ready on March 4th so it can roll on March 8. Carnival time is all about having a good time and having some fun so lets get some colorful, fun pictures submitted. Laissez les bons temp rouler!! (Let the good times roll!)

 Please leave your posts in the comment section or email me at amowillis@yahoo.com.
And for those thinking of hosting, Ann's also compiled a list of previous topics as an aide d'muse.  I can't host until the winter writing season's over, so all y'all have a chance to scoop my idea.  No, I won't tell you what it is!  You'll just have to host first and wait to see if your topic causes me to wail.

(Bonus: Ann's also got evidence for us snow-bound folk that spring will happen.  Happy sigh.)

Get yer parade gear on and mount up, geos!

Thank you Dana for reminding people about the Call to post for Accretionary Wedge-32.
Thanks also for mentioning other posts that I have up. I do hope we get another person soon to volunteer to host AW-33, and they don't come up with your idea.
