Heading to Huntsville!

We left Joe Wheeler State Park marina early this morning in cloudy and somewhat foggy weather.  The sun as you can see was trying to shine through the clouds.  It rained while we were at Joe Wheeler but in almost 5 weeks it is the only 2 rainy days we have had.

This is Decatur,  AL.  As you can see it is a very industrial area.  For 5 miles along the river there were industrial scenes such as are in the picture. 










For all my Fairview friends..behind the line of trees on the river lies the town of Fairview, AL.

Once we passed the city  of Decatur and the town of Fairview, the river turned once again into nature’s wonderland.  Beautiful scenery for the next 20 miles until we arrived at our destination - Huntsville, AL.  Our plan is to stay here for several days, rent a car and tour the sights of Huntsville.  Among the sights we will see is the US Space and Rocket center.  Hopefully we will have some wonderful pictures and stories of Huntsville.  On their news channel tonight, they said that Huntsville is a very popular retirement city. 


Good night - Pat
