I have uploaded several photos of the area I drove through on my road trip Wednesday. I did not take these photos as I do not have a digital camera yet, thus the different seasons. I found the photos on the 'net but wanted to give you an idea of what I was talking about. The one with the double arches was taken by someone driving the Natchez Trace

Actually, the area I drove through included Tuscaloosa county, where The University of Alabama is, where Forrest ran through Bear Bryant's practice and into football and civil rights lore (in the movie, of course)! Greene county is right next to Tuscaloosa county.

In south Alabama, there is the Gulf of Mexico. So we have mountains in the north, west, and east, rolling hills and forests centrally, flatter and very rich delta-like farmlands called the wiregrass towards the south, and then gleaming snow white beaches and the Gulf. No wonder they call it "Alabama the Beautiful".
