Outdoor Nature Places to Visit & US Army Soldier Show
Today's post comes from a reader who asked about outdoor nature places for hiking, fishing, and just to go be with the large expanses of nature.
Being that Huntsville is one of the cities with the most green spaces in the country, there are plenty of places to go in the city, metro area and for day trips outside the city.
Below are links we have assembled for going outdoors and getting into nature and being a part of different activities and observe the wonderful green scenery.
Huntsville Botanical Garden
Madison County Nature Trail on Green Mountain
Land Trust of North Alabama
Big Spring Park
Maple Hill Cemetery
State Parks of Alabama
Monte Sano State Park
Lake Guntersville State Park
Cathedral Caverns State Park
Alabama Vacation Guide
Today's Tidbit: Another part of The Carol Jacobs Team went out to the US Army Soldier Show Wednesday night and it was fantastic. A superb performance of singing, dancing, and acting. The stage had wonderful lights props, and soldiers that really had you believe they were professionals at everything they did. The music, singing, and dancing cut across all boundaries from country, rap, jazz, dance hall, Disney, rock, pop, and musicals. Here is the rest of the Tour Schedule for the US Army Soldier Show!

Quick Review of Concert in the Park: 7/22/13, US Army Materiel Command Band
Part of the Carol Jacobs team went to last night's Concerts in the Park on a whim and were pleased with the turnout, environment, and fun.
Put on by The Arts Council Inc of Huntsville, AL & the Department of Recreational Services of Huntsville, AL, was moved indoors because of the rain during the day and possible rain later on. The relocated event took place in the South Hall of the VBC, on the south side of the VBC Arena. The hall was completely air conditioned and over 95% brought their lawn chairs and folding chairs while the vendors sold food and drinks.
The MC for the evening was Steve Johnson of WHNT who introduced everyone from the band to guests to present honors to the band.
Once the the music started, it began with several jazz pieces then moving to the title track from the movie "1941" and the Olympic signature piece "Fanfare for the common man" among many others. The performers were looking very sharp and their instruments were completely sterling with shine that could be seen in the far back of the hall.
Intermingling with the crowd were also reenactors dressed up in different period uniforms from nurses from the Vietnam and WWII era, to Vietnam Recon soldiers and WWII infantry.
The large crowd gave applause after every set and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. With a concert this nice, free, and easy access to the event everyone was pleased to have made it.
We eagerly look forward to going to more Concerts in the Park.
