So I live in a crappy little town in Alabama and most of the population consists of meth heads and junkies. But there are beautiful places even in this town if you just look around. 
This is the Coosa River in Gadsden Alabama. There are several parks along the river that are rarely used.
Yesterday when I went the shad we’re schooling like crazy and I just dipped up my bait with a dip net.
All in all it was a great day in the park. So no matter where you are get out and go hiking, take a walk, take your kids fishing or swimming when it warms up, and just enjoy nature.
