Great Loop: Huntsville Alabama
We are berthed at Ditto Landing and using it as our base camp for exploring the Huntsville area. At the dock was a replica of the original Ditto Landing Ferry. Other cruisers had warned us there wasn't much to do here, but we are finding the opposite. First of all there is a nice greenway to walk and bike. It follows a lovely like creek for quite a distance and then head towards Huntsville. This is the Aldridge Creek Greenway. And then there is the Tennessee River Greenway that heads east for about a mile to Whitesburg Boat and Yacht Club. We biked the Aldridge Creek Greenway to get our propane bottle filled at the local Marathon Station. When the kids were young, we sent them to Space Camp, at the Huntsville Space at Rocket Center. Visiting again brought back many good memories. While at camp, they trained to fly a space shuttle mission. At graduation, we were surprised and pleased that Kate won the "Right Stuff" award for her focus...
