Huntsville, AL

I did not expect to spend most of my life living in Alabama. But Huntsville has been my home for many years now. Huntsville is nicknamed “Rocket City” because it’s home to the Marshall Space Flight Center where the Saturn rockets that took humanity to the moon were developed. Today, the NASA center is still here, along with the U. S. Space and Rocket Center, Space Camp, and the Missile Defense Agency. The rocket displays and old test stands on the horizon make for an interesting backdrop to daily life in the Tennessee Valley.
