  I’m from Seattle and graduated from the University of Washington. After graduation, some buddies and I embarked by car on a road trip to Florida and to really see America. We traveled through Alabama and were totally amazed by how friendly and welcoming we were treated by Alabama people. Ever since then, Alabama has been one of my favorite states.

  As an Alabama native you did ok. <br>You also mispronounced Cheha. You didn&apos;t say a word about the Crimson Tide yet covered the grotto twice. No mention of Mooresville either.<br>All you showed of Bellingrath was green bushes. None of the colorful flowers for every season.<br>We actually do have Natural Bridge park that you could get great photos of.<br>No night time pics of the bioluminescent .<br>You missed the Cahaba lilies that only bloom once a year under the moon and glow that grow wild along the Cahaba River you mentioned.<br>If you&apos;re going to make a video like this do your best so that you can be proud and make us watching it glad we did.
