Nick,  Beautiful photo.  Monte Sano is amazing, isn't it?  I'll skip the camping, but wouldn't mind hiking a few of the trails.  I've heard they are gorgeous in the fall.

Beth-thanks for the visit.  And thank you more for the tips.  You're too much.  Talk to you this next week...it's already lonely without you there!

Hi Nick!  Hmmmm feels like i'm eavesdropping on a private conversation??? 

Anyway you know, my sister lives in Alabama...nowhere near Huntsville though.  Your presentation is very professional and informative.  Leaves enough interest that a curious person may just take you up on your offer and schedule a tour!

Hello Diane-no, don't feel that way, if it was private it certainly wouldn't be seen in a post!  Beth and I are friends and we work in the same office and she actually gave me a few tips on the post.

Nice to hear from you again.  What area does your sister live in? 

Thanks for you comment on the post, there is so much to learn here...it's a never ending process, a bit over whelming at times.

I seem to remember on someones blog, there is a gentleman from Florida making a move to work with you...hope that goes well and congrats.

Thanks for your kind words on my post.  Sister lives in very small community ... New Castle, near Birmingham?

Diane, I guess that's about an hour forty five from me.  Alabama is quite a change for me, I do enjoy the people I've met and the weather certainly is milder than Chicago.  I have a long time friend who's a property manager in Chicago...that's got to be tough in the winter.  Anyway, duty calls...talk to you soon.

Hi Nick, as close as I am to Huntsville, I haven't spent much time there.  I'd love to come visit the park.

Ann-thanks for your comment.  It is beautiful with so much to do...a hidden jewel. 

I can say the same about being so close to Birmingham...in the last three years I've only made it there once.

Nick-that sounds like a nice park.  They don't really have places like that near me.  When I was in Maine two years ago I visited a beautiful park that sounds just like this one.

Debra-it's very nice most anytime of the year, but the fall is my favorite.  Of course, fall is my favorite season anyway...anywhere!  I have never been to Maine, but I've seen the pictures of it in the fall and it's absolutely gorgeous.

You are not that far from where a cousin of mine used to live in Ridgewood NJ.  I would visit when I was youger and we would take trips into NY.

Rebecca-glad you enjoyed it...seems as though there is a video for just about everything these days.

I've talked to people who have lived in West VA or visited and they do talk about how beautiful it is.
