Have you been to Alabama?

Although my wife, our kids, and I now live in central Texas, I grew up in Alabama, where my sister and our mother still reside. Alabama is replete with natural beauty. While on a trip there in August 2017, we paid a visit to scenic Noccalula Falls.

Behind the falls, under the high ledge that the waterfall plunges over, erosion has carved out a vast, cavernous, damp, rock-roofed open space, to the left in all these photos. At this point in our brief, easy, breezy, shady hike, we hadn’t entered there yet.

Stay tuned, Steemians! This entry is part of a series. Part one is here. Further glimpses of our family’s visit to Noccalula Falls will arrive in future installments. Part three is here.
