In and around Alabama.

Having just washed my hands of the moving truck, I scoured the local papers and web for events and activities in Alabama where my 20-month son might also have a little fun. My findings:

  • Ole Timey Craft and Bluegrass Festival in Estillfork, AL from September 15-16. Friday from 5-10 pm and Saturday from 9 in the morning to 6 pm at the Paint Rock Valley Lodge. For more info, contact Vivan Prince at 334-756-9676.
  • 6th Annual Gospel Bluegrass Festival in Red Level, AL on September 16th. Starts at 5:30 pm in Crystal Springs Park. Free admission. Bring lawn chairs. Contact 334-469-5677 for details.
  • 8th Annual Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival on September 22-24 in downtown Birmingham.
  • Our Town will be playing at the Gallaway Theatre in Tuscaloosa from Sept. 25 through October 1.
  • The Pillowman will be playing at the Gallaway Theatre from October 10-15. A dark yet comedic look at the politics of murder in a totalitarian state.
  • No matter the season, everyone should spend at least one weekend or week hiking around Bankhead and enjoying the Bankhead Lake. I'll post about my favorite Alabama hiking escapades in the near future...
More events, including gourd festivals, pecan festivals, syrup-sopping festivals, and other special events peculiar to the state of Alabama can be discovered here.
