Huntsville is a growing town and should hold lots of opportunities for someone like you Rusty. The Arsenal employs many. Airport is easy to get to and looks great. We go there about once a year for reunion of Red's relatives. I think but am not positive, that the Madison community, part of Huntsville is the best area to buy a home if you take the job.
John Jentz should be chiming in as he lives there or very close. Huntsville area has lots of fishing and hunting too. Huntsville is about 3 hours from Memphis. Probably about the same to Atlanta. I saw a yellow 914 in Athens which is west of Huntsville the last time we went and a red one with a young guy and his girl friend driving by Helen Keller's home in Tuscumbia, which btw, is near Muscle Shoals, a recording mecca for some early 70's music legends. Anyhow, I yelled for him to pull over. Stopped and told him about the 914 places that could be found on the Internet.
Anyhow to stay on subject, I think you might like the place if you take the job.
The roads there are good and the Interstates link you just west of town with lots of places to go. Gulf coast and Mobile is about 2 hours I think. You can honk your horn and maybe Joe Ricard down in Gautier on the Gulf coast will hear.
Near lots of 914 in a 150 mile circle. Some say there are many parts cars in that area that have never been parted.
Wish I had some of the group near me so I could get mine running.
