Finding Forgotten Alabama

Finding Forgotten Alabama is my fourth book in the series and perhaps my best. After my last book, 200 Years of Forgotten Alabama, I wondered if there was much left for me to find. Surely I’ve seen pretty much all there was to see? Turns out, I may never find everything. I managed to visit every one of Alabama’s 67 counties several times and got to see the beauty that is the state of Alabama. It will amaze you, as it did me, the things I found that I never knew about.

Finding Forgotten Alabama

 

Sand Island Lighthouse

This is something I’ve sought after for years. It was one of those “must have” shots but I needed a drone and a boat. That finally happened in March, 2021. A friend had his boat down at Ft Morgan and offered to take me out to shoot it. We had to deal with choppy waters and 15 knot winds. It was exciting but not in a good way. The fear of losing my drone to the watery depths of Mobile Bay was deeply ingrained in me. But, between my friend and me, I managed to get one of those shots of a lifetime.

I’ve known about this old Rock City barn for years. After I got a drone, I could actually see it too!
