Some fellow campers told us about a few places to go. This was one of them. It tells of Alabama's place in the past with regards to the steel and iron industry. You can see more about it here: http://www.tannehill.org/
It was a neat place, and Bill was in his element for sure!!
You can just imagine how an engineer could go ga-ga in a place like this! Or a history buff.
And on the natural history side...a very cool moth!! And best yet, a living, uncaged specimen!
One of the many gorgeous trees blooming in the area!
A typical cabin type for the area and period. They used these as rentals!
Just another lovely river running through it... And a very peaceful, wholesome scene with families fishing together along its banks. It was very refreshing to know that families still do these kinds of things together in places.
After a few trips in a smaller, used motorhome, we decided we liked all that adventuring so much, we came home and traded in our RV for a bigger one, moved out of our house and rented it, moving into our little yurt in the back country of a certain southern CA county - all in one month! We started out afresh then as full-time RVers - my husband, two cats, two dogs, and I. And indeed, our first year with our new Winnebago Tour, we were out from Jan. to Nov. However, due to health issues and trying to avoid the cold wintery weather found in so much of our country, subsequent years have seen us only out for about 6 months, scurrying back to sunny, mild southern Calif. come fall.
I am amazed at all we've seen and the wonderful people we've met. Come share it with us...
