Huntsville is full of diversity, which an out-of-towner might expect it to be lacking. The fine dining atmosphere’s flourish in restaurant such as k syrah-syrah, salmon bar & grill (formerly green bottle grill) and Pollies. The city is at the bottome of Monte Sano, which is a perfect scenary location if you like to go hiking or mountain biking…only a half hour away from the tennessee boarder, about an hour away from nacalula falls, and a great location if you like to travel to places like birmingham, atlanta, or even new orleans.
When I was living there, every weekend, I would drive to the Flint River, there is a family that lives at the bottome of the river, upon arriving, they drive you to the top of the river and drop you with your choice of a kayak or a canoe. A great day trip to cruise down the river, with a snack or fishing pole in hand. By the time the sun falls, you reach the bottom of the river and voila! You are back at your car on your way home….ah the days!!!
