Birmingham is not what you expect

by parismumsie - last update: Jul 10, 2008

Birmingham - You must visit to appreciate it.

February in Birmingham ...almost spring
Birmingham has been my home for most of my life. Although we have seasons, the temperature is for the most part mild. The winter temps can fall to freezing and the summer.... well the summer is HOT! We had over 100 degree weather for several weeks last August. Spring is the best....azaleas, dogwoods all in bloom. It really is breathtaking. Birmingham and it's surrounding suburbs sits between two mountains. Fall is especially beautiful. You really must come and experience it for yourself. While it once was a steel making capital, it is now a city with many different faces. Southern Hospitality awaits you.

 Virginia, your page has galvanized my desire to move back to the South. I'm looking forward to more.

 Wonderful. You got your flowers posted. Our camelias bloom at Christmas but yours are a sign of Spring. Your photos are lovely.

 Thanks for your e-mail. Nice new photos of Birmingham in the snow in your travelogue. Have you ever been to Opera Birmingham at the Alys Stephens Center?
