Joe, my wife is from LA (Eufaula) and we are lifelong residents of the great state of Alabama. However, I must agree that Alabama is a terrible, horrible place to live. Wherever I travel in the US, particularly out of the South, I always provide this wise counsel about Alabama: The weather is hot and humid, lots of bugs, mean and uneducated people, crowded cities, disgusting food, etc. etc. etc. You really want to go to Austin, Atlanta, Denver, Salt Lake, Miami or maybe even Portland! Don't move to Alabama or even drive through there - much too dangerous!!!
Now, can you recommend a guide in the Ft.Morgan area or close by that does trout fishing?
