It all started when we had the idea of going to a AA Baseball game in each of the four major cities in Alabama: Huntsville, Birmingham, Montgomery and Mobile. More and more Major League Baseball players are making the jump directly from AA to the big leagues and you can see these future stars in intimate stadiums at reasonable prices. We thought we’d see a few sights in Alabama, eat some grits and biscuits & gravy, pig out on barbeque and drink a lot of sweet tea, but what we experienced in Alabama really knocked our socks off. Tremendous food and gorgeous scenery. There were civil rights memorials that brought tears to our eyes, underground caverns that took our breath away and throughout the state we found a friendly, welcoming atmosphere that left us planning our next visit at the soonest possible opportunity. We started our road trip in Huntsville, the Rocket City. It got that name when German rocket scientist Wernher Von Braun moved there in 1950 to work on the American space program.
