We wanted to get here on short trip in Jan-but no time. Thanks for the virtual tour and maybe some day we will see the city. Your skyline view is fabulous.
Thx to remember me at the very good time i spent in this town. Greetz from Belgium
nice pics
Great first pic! I'd like to taste Great Southern barbecue!
Nice job!
Love the first picture of Birmingham. I'll be there in 2 weeks. We'll see a couple of the places you mentioned.
Good start. Lived in the South for awahile, but never really made it for much time to Alabama. Maybe next time through...
your Birmingham looks better then ours....nice page
This looks a great little outing from where you live. Feeding those birds must have been fun.
