Things To Do: Oak Mountain State Park

  • Oak Mountain is Alabama's largest State Park, with almost 10,000 acres of mountains, lakes, and forests.

    Swimming, hiking, biking, fishing, golfing, horse back riding or just observing nature. Bring a picnic lunch and wear good walking shoes. Or enjoy the beach at the Lake. It was a cloudy day (no rain), so we did the nature walk at the Treetop Nature Trail.

    Oak Mountain is one of the southermost "wrinkles" in the Appalachian chain. Check out the Treetop Nature Trail while you're there!

    This is a beautiful area to visit!!

  • The 28th Annual Decorators' ShowHouse to benefit the Alabama Symphoney Orchestra was put on by the The Alabama Symphoney Volunteer Council. April 13 - May 4, 2003

    The Boothby-Wehby Estate

    Each room in the house was given to a designer to decorate for the showcase event. We couldn't take pictures inside, but take my word for it, it was very impressive. But I think my favorite part was the view from the back, both from the house and from the yard. A beautiful view of Samford University, Birmingham. Check out my travelogue for a couple of pictures of the view ...

     I checked your pg, thebayratt & see that you're talking about Sante Fe Cattle Co. Unfortunately, things change & so do waiters or waitresses. The one you had should be out the door soon from the sounds of it. Sorry you had such a bad experience.
