    Cute town, growing fast. Lots of building going on. The library was nice but just a 5 minute experience. The tiny downtown was fun.

    Over the span of two(ish) hours, we hiked Rainbow Mountain Loop, JaMooKoo Trail, and Balance Rock Trail. These trails were very well-maintained and well-marked, and we saw lots of beautiful Spring flowers in bloom! There were some rocky parts on the trail, but it was mostly dirt and easily navigable. The terrain consisted of gently sloping trails but nothing steep (our four-year-old did just fine on all three trails).

    I recommend getting there somewhat early, as the parking lots fill up quickly. There is a playground just off the trailhead, and leashed dogs are welcomed on all trails. There are also no fees to hike here.

    We're excited to return to explore the other trails!

    Madison City Farmers Market is held weekly on Saturday, typically opening at 8 am and going to noon from mid April through early November at 1088 Hughes Road, site of Trinity Baptist Church. The market is held on a grassy, partially shaded area to the south of the church. There is plenty of parking and two exits to facilitate arrival and departure from/onto Hughes Road. There is a good variety of farmers and crafts, from seasonal fruits and vegetables, to flowers, herbs and honey. Prices are comparable to other farmers' markets in the Madison and Huntsville area. The market is pet friendly, only requiring pet owners to keep their pets on leashes and clean up after them.

    This paved, wide pathway runs adjacent to Bradford Creek and is perfect for walkers, runners, cyclists, and those walking their dogs. There are several trash bins along the route, as well as poop bag dispensers for those walking their dogs. The pathway was immaculate and in excellent condition. We'll be back frequently to walk our dogs!

    They have 2 separate fenced in areas for dogs to run and play. I think one is for large dogs and one for small. Also has a playground for the kids. They have a nice walking path and frisbee golf too.

    I visited Mad County while winery hopping on my travels back home. This is a unique distillery and winery that offers wine and spirits outside of the traditional norm. I will say that you are not going to find traditional wines here. If you like sweet wines that are made from other fruits, this is the place to go. The wine is great, but what really sold me on this place were the homemade rums and whiskeys. I'm not usually a whiskey or rum drinker because the taste is usually disagreeable to me. BUT, the rums and sorghum whiskey that Mad County makes are OUTSTANDING! I cannot stress this fact enough. Cotton, the owner, served me his homemade rum with creamer, and it was out of this world! Really, this is the only place I would bother getting my rum from, besides Haitian rum, of which I am a fan. However, the hard part is the fact that you have to buy the spirits they make at the local liquor store. I had a tough time finding it as a non local and ended up being unable to procure any. Cotton and his wife are welcoming and very entertaining too. Overall, a wonderful experience!

    Some really beautiful antiques, displayed nicely in an older looking setting in what looked like a historic building. Prices were reasonable.

    I have taken my grandchildren here multiple times and we always have a great time, they get to run around and burn off some of the energy they have. We really love watching them have a good time.

    I truly enjoyed the game experience at Toyota Field. The Trash Pandas seem like a great franchise, and a team that I think could thrive in Huntsville. The prices for everything was inline with other experiences. I really hate it for the team that the developers so poorly planned the traffic flow in and out of this ball park. Minor league baseball shouldn’t be this difficult. I worry that when the new wears off the Trash Pandas their attendance will hurt due to the difficulty leaving the stadium. I will have a hard time visiting this ballpark too often.

    This fellowship of believers have been a Godsend to my life. Nothing but a miraculous journey I have embarked upon learning how Christ truly walked by learning how important it is to connect back to our Jewish roots in history in order to learn the truths of the Bible. I feel nothing but truth and love from this fellowship of believers and truly feel I am being given the tools to help me mirror Christs love and understanding for others.
